    Summary

    When Gem activates her power, she is involuntarily reminded of the idea that the soul and the body are two separate things. How else can she describe what happens? How else can she describe the unsticking of her conscious mind from the physical flesh that tethers it to the mortal plane, how else can she describe how she rises effortlessly into the air and leaves her body behind, how else can she describe the feeling of sensing the world around her without eyes or ears or hands or a nose or a mouth? It startles her so bad that the hold she has on her ability slips for a crucial second—and she's back in her body, reeling at having a face and a heart and feet again.

    So. Astral projecting is an interesting experience.

    Revelation of the soul

    Genuinely one of the best oneshots I’ve ever read, short but oh so evocative descriptions of what exactly gem is experiencing
