    Summary

    Caleb takes a minute or two to stand in the doorway and breathe the familiar colors of Adam’s focus, curiosity, excitement. The same feelings he got around Blackwell’s journal. Around Sam and Chloe when they first met. Around Caleb every time he’d ask, “What am I feeling now?” and Caleb would nail it down just right.

    Adam’s fascination. It might be Caleb’s favorite feeling of his, if he had to pick one.

    Summary

    When they met, Adam was sad and confused and lonely – and Caleb felt drawn to him somehow, even though he’d thought he was weird (and before, that weirdness was off-putting. An insult, almost. He didn’t understand it. But now, Caleb wouldn’t trade it for the world). The blue didn’t really make sense then, but it’s grown to be so familiar to Caleb that it’s like second nature to him now. It belongs. Even though despair and confusion and loneliness shouldn’t stay – even though Dr. Bright says that those feelings are temporary, and that someday, he’ll find balance and be happy – Caleb finds comfort in them. Because they’re tied to Adam.

    Summary

    Adam could barely deal with his own feelings and thoughts half the time, much less those of everyone around him. But Caleb and Chloe had used their abilities to become better people. He wasn’t sure he’d be able to do the same, in their position.

    Summary

    Caleb has a panic attack and goes nonverbal so Adam helps him calm down.

    "All the colors clash together like a bad abstract painting; too much orange, the purple is washed out and ugly, the yellow makes me want to pluck my eyes out, the red is too neon, and there's not nearly enough green. It feels like my skull might burst and splatter the walls with the multi-colored cacophony inside my brain."
