was doing wonders for her social awareness.
     
    The man flinched. “I don’t know what you are talking about.” He replied as he took a sip of his beer.
     
    Janette cocked head to one side. There was something strange about the way that he formed his sentences, as if he was obsessed with saying every single word exactly how it was supposed to be said. “I’m sorry, I didn’t even realize how weird that question was.” She replied.
     
    He nodded, a smile on his face that suggested he was pretending to understand what she had just said. “Right… Well, I guess I’ll just take that as a compliment.” He replied.
     
    Janette raised an eyebrow. “You are unbelievably nice.” She believed.
     
    “And you are impossibly honest.” Much to her satisfaction, he sounded in genuine awe.
     
    “Am I?” Janette replied. “I think I’m just impossibly drunk right now.”
     
    He laughed at this. The sound leaving his lips resembling more like what a gloriously large bell than what she would have expected from a man that size. She found herself leaning in even closer to him. “Don’t be embarrassed. It’s absolutely adorable.”
     
    Janette winced. “Is it that obvious?”
     
    He shook his head. “No. I’m just really good at reading people.”
     
    “And choosing beers.” Janette added, pointing at the pint in front of him.
     
    He cocked his head to the side.
     
    Her lips folded into a triumphant smile. “That was my little bit of mind reading.” She replied.
     
    He raised an eyebrow. “I said I read people, not minds.” He replied.
     
    “I’m sorry. I didn’t realize there was a difference.” She took another sip of her coke, reveling in the fact that she was feeling more and more like herself by the minute.
     
    He nodded. “Oh yes there is. Minds are complex and hidden, and sometimes what you think you see might not even be real. Minds often lie, but people never do. You can see their intentions in their eyes, you can feel it in their breath and their voice. People are as true as anything can ever be.”
     
    “And what are my intentions?”
     
    He shrugged, pursing his lips as if preparing to give her a half-ass answer, but just when he was about to open his mouth to say something, he saw something in her and his jaw clamped shut. He leaned into her, even going so far as to rest a hand on her thigh. “You seem to be looking for comfort. In fact, you look like you have had a terrible day.” He replied.
     
    Janette flinched, leaning away from him. It bothered her that her mental strife was that apparent to total strangers.
     
    He laughed at this, as if he had actually heard her thoughts. “Don’t worry. I’m just good at reading people. I told you.”
     
    She shook her head. “Don’t people ever get freaked out by you?” she asked. She meant it as a joke, but even as it was leaving her lips, she could tell that it was a very, very terribly formed joke.
     
    He shook his head. “As a matter of fact, you’re the first person I have actually told about this ability.” He explained, taking another sip of his beer.
     
    Janette narrowed her eyes. “Ability? You say that like it’s some sort of super power.” She retorted.
     
    He shrugged. “Depends on your definition of super power.” He replied.
     
    Janette shook her head. “You are so strange.” She replied.
     
    He laughed. “I’m not the one sitting alone at a bar.”
     
    Janette scoffed, amused, in spite of herself and replied with, “Until about two seconds ago, you were too!”
     
    He chuckled at this. “I guess you’re right. But I’ll have you know, we are not at all alike.” He replied.
     
    Janette raised an eyebrow. “You ordered a Blue Moon. How different can we be?” she replied.
     
    He shrugged. “I saw you order it earlier and I figured I should try it.” He replied.
     
    Janette could not deny the fact that she was significantly spooked by that comment. “Oh really? How long have you actually
