[So, it's taken a little bit of effort to actually pull himself together enough to make this post without appearing like he's about to start actually panicking. Waking up with a hangover in a hotel room you've never seen before is bad enough, but upon realizing he can't even sense the minds of others around him, let alone reach out to contact them in any way is almost like realizing he can't feel his legs for the first time again.

His first thought, really, is to contact Erik, but that's not an option he wants to pursue. Maybe. At least not when he's feeling this powerless (literally) and vulnerable. So instead, after pulling it together enough to sound somewhat presentable, he posts to the Barge in general.]

Is it standard for abilities to be reduced when the Admiral drops us off in port?

[Private to Erik AFTER MUCH HESITATION AND INTERNAL DEBATE and a bit later than the first part of the message]

Are you alright?
