Powers were such a strange, foreign concept. Despite popular belief, there can't ever really be a proper grasp on how powers are obtained, and to what extent they end at. New use of these powers, new powers themselves, are always being discovered, but for someone like Aristotle that fact didn't matter; he knew not much about them. He had no working concept of anatomy required to make someone compatible, whether they were genetic abilities, or anything else necessarily conceivable. All he knew was that he could sometimes make sand float, and that he can make flowers blossom from his paw prints.
He hadn't tried using any of his powers since moving to the mainland, especially not flowerprints. The harshness of winter's cold just seemed to unforgiving for whatever fragile piece of greenery he could conjure, so he didn't bother trying. Sometimes, however, his powers just started to work without him opting them to. Such as that late morning, when Aristotle was padding quietly through camp, lost in thought about whatever topic he'd succumbed to that hour. In particular, he was reminiscing about how he wanted to find himself a new journal he could write in, how his other was lost on the fishing vessel he'd stowed away in. It wasn't until his skull had started pounding, a quaking abruptly overtaking his cranium in a way only describable as a hammer beating his temple, that he realized his thoughts were projecting.
Telepathy was his weakest ability, so if anyone had been affected by his accidental usage of the power, his thoughts would have only been a soft drone of gentle static in the back of their minds. He was unaware of such a fact, however. Aristotle, his body seizing up, froze in utter shock and embarrassment; his face felt hot, his shoulders began to shake. Palling, the scruffy tomcat quickly lurched starboard and ducked into an alleyway between two cabins, horrified. The only audible words that any victim would be able to hear from him would be a slightly louder 'I'm so sorry!' before his thoughts were silenced, and he stood there in the alley, closing his eyes against the headache pressing his skull.
