Webmind: Have fun with words, mun~

Walter doesn't immediately start petting the rabbit, just lets it eat at its own pace.

"Excuse you, I do get out some," is his first, slightly joking, reply.

Walter takes a steadying breath.

"It's like, I have a thought, and it still feels like 'normal' speed, but everything else takes longer to happen. Nerve firings are fine, but if I think about it too much... there's a gap, a dissonance, between myself and the world around me."

As he talks, he lifts the hand not occupied with the rabbit, as if for effect.

"So, theoretically, I could make myself talk as fast as I think, but it'd do crap-all for making myself understood. It'd sound like gibberish."
