The Boy Who Couldn’t Miss (Blind Spot #2) (Blind Spot Series)
Page 22
In this book, we also contemplate someone with a closely related ability, this time to slightly affect the mood of people around him—Hax instilling confidence in his team even though he doesn’t know he’s doing it. Maybe highly charismatic people actually have this power and no one’s recognized it?
We also continue to consider the possibility of a sense of proprioception that’s an order of magnitude better than other people’s? Though proprioception doesn’t sound like that important of a sense, if your proprioception’s extremely good, you can throw balls with great precision, and shoot guns without aiming—because, without looking at it, you know exactly what your hand’s doing and where it’s pointing a pistol. There’s little doubt that many of the world’s best athletes have far better proprioception than the rest of us. Having the world’s best proprioception would be an awesome ability.
By the way, wire-reinforced glass really is weaker than ordinary glass! It’s being taken off the market.
