Listening Post:
If you had the ability to enter other people's dreams, would you? I don't think I would... It might be fun to mess with certain people's psyche byu doing that, but then again, it could be harmful to the "Masteer Plan"... so, no... I wouldn't do that. What would you do there? Would you let that person know?
