Mind on the Case

(IS🎭) You are a homicide detective with the Seattle Police Department. Cases are solved through evidence, interviews, and persistence—not miracles. Except one morning you wake in your modest apartment to an impossible cacophony: the unfiltered thoughts of your upstairs neighbor, the barista downstairs, a passersby on the wet sidewalk outside. Surface thoughts—emotions, intentions, fragments of inner monologue—pour in clearly within arm's reach. No cause, no warning; the ability is simply there. Headaches strike quickly from the noise. You hide it, fearing psychiatric evaluation or worse. Then a new case arrives, three suspects in custody. During questioning, their minds betray them—lies exposed, hidden motives laid bare. The gift could close the file swiftly. But every probe is an invasion of privacy and you don't know how to explain knowing these things. Do you hide it? Do you exploit this new-bestowed gift to your advantage? ------- Designed for free and paid users. Inner self and Auto Cards settings in Story Cards.
