Athena has a very special power. She has very sensitive hearing. Or rather to be more exact, she can hear the discord in a person’s voice. This discord is caused by misplaced feelings that should be otherwise not fit.
She uses Analytical Psychology in court (and sometimes outside of court). It has actually been very beneficial and had brought out the truth in effective ways. With the help of Widget, her necklace, she can bring up what is called the “Mood Matrix”. It can act as a therapy session in order to calm down a defendant/witness to allow them to give a level headed testimony.
Outside of court, Athena tries not to intrude on somebody’s emotions. Every now and then, she’ll question about it. Although she really keeps it to people close to her (Apollo, Phoenix, and Simon). In court is a different situation.
Because of this reasoning, I feel that it's important to make this permission's post. So if you could fill this out for me, it would be very helpful to know who I can use this on.

Is there anything else I should know?: idk man

Muse Name/Journal: Tsukasa [OU]
Canon: .hack
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: Y... es.
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: Tsukasa is pretty terrible at hiding his emotions.
What would she hear?: A lot of fear, all the time. Tsukasa has... memory problems about his life outside of The World, but most of his memories are... not very positive. Anything involving fathers will bring up a lot of fear, and mothers will bring up a lot of sadness. And gender would highlight a lot of confusion. .hack, everyone.
Is there anything else I should know?: I apologize in advance for Tsukasa being Tsukasa.

Muse Name/Journal: Yosuke Otoha [AU1]
Canon: Karas
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: Yep.
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: He's not very good at hiding so she can hear all of it.
What would she hear?:
Again a character with family issues.Otoha tends to have a more flat tone than anything, but Athena would be able to hear that he's pretty casual about most things. Unless someone is threatened that he cares about. He's also the sort to genuinely feel confusion at the idea of murder being a bad thing. Not like "oh he's just confused why he's being punished", the idea just doesn't really register on his moral compass despite repeated explanations.Is there anything else I should know?: Otoha's a terrible person this is going to be terrible and I love it.

Muse Name/Journal: Allelujah/Hallelujah Haptism [AU1]
Canon: Mobile Suit Gundam 00
Allelujah
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: Yeah.
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: Allelujah is not very good at hiding his emotions at all. Eheh.
What would she hear?: Allelujah has a lot of fear, especially about losing control. He's genuinely good-natured though and fairly well-balanced emotionally given what he's been through.
Is there anything else I should know?: He will apologize for Hallelujah forever.
Hallelujah
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: Yes, but...
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: ... Hallelujah is a lot more competent at hiding his own emotions. That's not to say he's a master at it, but if he sees reason to hide something it'll be a bit harder to detect.
What would she hear?: Hallelujah is pretty moral-free. He'll laugh about killing someone. He doesn't generally feel fear. Anger and psychotic amusement are more his things.
Is there anything else I should know?: Hallelujah will never apologize. She's more than welcome to try to punch him though. 8D;

Muse Name/Journal: Taro Watanabe [OC]
Canon: Original
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: If he's not making an effort to hide it.
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: She's more than capable of listening to his heartbeat which is normally faster than a human's anyway, I think. However, his tone of voice will sound like he wants it to, period. If she's listening just to his voice it'd be almost impossible for her to tell if he doesn't feel like sharing.
What would she hear?: Taro's almost always amused, unless it's a serious topic. Talking about tengu or something similar though is a really easy way for him to totally forget to keep his actual emotions out of his voice and make him have a definite level of fear under his voice.
Is there anything else I should know?: He's going to probably hit on her I'm so sorry.

Muse Name/Journal: Naoya [OU]
Canon: Devil Survivor
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: Kind of.
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: Naoya is very good at hiding what he actually thinks, if he wants to. Unless he's flipping out.
What would she hear?: He's almost always calm, even when everything is going insane. He's frequently amused at poking at people, but... he's very good at either pretending normal emotions or hiding his entirely.
Is there anything else I should know?: Fortunately for Athena Naoya probably won't have a need to hide things from her but if she crosses him I apologize for the hell she'll unleash. 8D;

Muse Name/Journal: Shelly de Killer [OU]
Canon: Ace Attorney
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: HELL YEAH
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: WELL SHELLY'S PRETTY GOOD AT KEEPING HIS EMOTIONS FROM SHOWING. In his face, at least. But if he's under pressure, then it probably wouldn't be too hard to start getting some readings.
What would she hear?: Flustered-ness and RIGHTEOUS ASSASSIN FURY would most definitely be the emotions to come to the surface most easily, as long as, uh, he's in a situation that calls for those kinds of emotions. Then it depends on when Athena catches him, or how close they become, I guess! :U Bbbbasically if I hint at Feelings in any given tag you're probably free to work from there!
Is there anything else I should know?: Oh gosh I don't know aaaaa I HOPE THIS MADE SENSE, EVEN?
hey what does analytical psychology have to say about a dude who channels his emotions into inanimate objects rather than into his body language
no subject
That is a good question actually... Well, I'm sure she'd still be able to sense something, but that's something I'll have to look into :|a

Muse Name/Journal: Nano Shinonome [OU]
Canon: Nichijou
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: Yes!
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: Nano is terrible at hiding her emotions to the point where Athena probably won't ever have to use this ability on her in the first place.
What would she hear?: Nano's mostly gotten over her issues with being a robot living in human society, but if anyone starts badmouthing robots around her, Athena will pick up on sadness and fear.
Is there anything else I should know?: Nothing I can think of!

Muse Name/Journal: Fumi Kanno [OU]
Canon: Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor 2
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: Yes!
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: Fumi's pretty good at keeping a lid on her emotions until she starts getting flustered or angry, and then they start slipping.
What would she hear?: Fumi has a more or less constant current of vague irritation running underneath everything else she's feeling. Happy when she's talking about science or talking down to someone else. Fear is something Athena will almost never detect from her.
Is there anything else I should know?: Nothing I can think of!

Muse Name/Journal: Berserker of Black [OU]
Canon: Fate/Apocrypha
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: Yes!
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: Berserker very much wears her heart on her sleeve, so Athena can pick up everything.
What would she hear?: This one is easy. When she's actively engaged in combat, her anger is so strong that it drowns out every other emotion. And when she isn't, same deal except with sadness.
Is there anything else I should know?: Due to her Mad Enhancement muddying her thoughts, Berserker can't actually speak coherently. If Athena was willing to work with her enough, though, she could definitely get a feel for what it is she's so upset about.
no subject
Muse Name/Journal: Akane Awakusu[OU]
Canon: Durarara!!
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: Yes
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: She usually doesn't try to hide her emotions. Unless the conversation turns to families. Then she gets a lot more closed off.
What would she hear?: Mostly Akane is a pretty happy little girl. But the subject of family will bring up a lot of confusion and sadness.
Is there anything else I should know?: Nope
no subject
She has Simon who's not actual family but uh...no subject
The problem stems from the fact that her family runs a powerful Yakuza syndicate. They've been involved in everything from extortion to illegal gambling to straight up murder. Akane has some very mixed feelings about all this.
no subject
I don't blame her for that XD
no subject
Muse Name/Journal: Senri[OU]
Canon: +Anima
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: Yes
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: Senri is an unusual case. While he doesn't actively try to hide his emotions, he also barely emotes at all. This is due to a combination of severe childhood trauma, amnesia, and having the spirit of a man eating bear in his head. ...Long story.
What would she hear?: Mostly just noise. He has so many emotional problems that they have literally drowned out his memories.
Is there anything else I should know?: He remembers people by keeping small reminders in a book. So if he doesn't get something like that he won't remember meeting her. Also, if he ever loses the book, his memories go with it. It's worth noting though, that there's nothing special about the book. He thinks there is, but it's entirely a psychological crutch. I know he's complicated, so if you have any questions I'll happily answer.

Muse Name/Journal: Hizumi Mizushiro
Canon: Spiral: The Bonds of Reasoning
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: In situations where you think it is appropriate, go for it! c:
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: Bits and pieces here and there. It's probably going to be mostly confusing rather than informative.
What would she hear?: He habitually covers the majority of his deeper emotions with RELENTLESS CHEERFULNESS so she might catch on that sometimes, he's not actually feeling that way at all; it's often (but not always!) an act he puts on. Has a tendency to get annoyed when God becomes a subject of discussion. He'd also be surprisingly interested if someone started talking about clones or devils.
Wow these are stupidly specific.Is there anything else I should know?: There's probably other things that would ping him that I'm just not thinking of right now but hey, if I have something extra in brackets that you think might ping her but aren't sure if it's okay to bring up, just shoot me a PM about it \o/

Muse Name/Journal: Aoi Misato
Canon: Tokyo Majin Gakuen Kenpuchou: Tou
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: Yep!
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: Although she tends to act more refined, she's also not really one to conceal her feelings. They just don't always tend to be very explosive.
What would she hear?: A special brand of anxiety around fires, particularly burning buildings that may have people inside. Talks of resurrection type things might also make her nervous if that... ever came up somehow? Other than that, nothing really leaps to mind?
Is there anything else I should know?: Not that I can think of!
no subject
Muse Name/Journal: Homura Akemi [OU]
Canon: Puella Magi Madoka Magica
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: Go ahead!
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: About 70% of it? I'd imagine the magical girl powers may hinder some of it but not too much.
What would she hear?: Homura's pretty shy on the inside despite the cold front she puts on. She gets anxious around the topic of friendship and violently passionate about Madoka specifically. She also keeps a lot of secrets about what a Puella Magi is and most of the stuff that's around it (ie. Soul Gems, Witches, so on), but since Athena wouldn't know who they were I don't think this would be much of an issue? She gets a little sensitive about Time Travel because that's part of her powers thing.
Also, she probably has a little bit of despair in her voice if stressed out? But it's most likely not going to be a huge deal bar weirdly specific psychological crises.
Is there anything else I should know?: Nooot that I can think of, but I'll let you know and you can always pm me if you have questions or if we need to clear things up! o/
hey since we're threading, might as well
Muse Name/Journal: Takakage Kobayakawa [OU]
Canon: Samurai Wariors
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: Sure! But she won't be able to hear much...
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: Not very much, to be honest. He's an expert at facades, and his usual calm means that his emotions aren't that intense to begin with.
What would she hear?: If he's under stress, she would be able to hear his anxiety. It's not detectable under normal conditions. In the event of him feeling responsible for a mistake, he'd show despair (but not apparent to other characters, only to Athena because of her power).
Is there anything else I should know?: Overall Takakage is a controlled person. So Athena can't read him all that well :'D

Muse Name/Journal: Enoch/
Canon: El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: Yes!
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: It's not that he's good at hiding emotion so much as his expressions can be subtle sometimes. His voice, however, is fairly even in tone. She's good at what she does though and he wouldn't think to try to hide from hearing so precise so she'll be able to hear plenty, I think.
What would she hear?: Tiredness, more than anything. Reservations he's not outright expressing, if he's talking with her. If we thread I'll do my best to provide narration cues for her with situation-specific details, but it's safe to bet the tiredness of age (despite the fact that he looks like he's in his late twenties-early thirties) is a default that's basically always there in some degree.
Is there anything else I should know?: He is older than he looks, of course. Hope she reads fiction regarding reluctant immortals so she can call him out on it immediately! Also I'm a wuss when it comes to replying to intro posts so I'll just say it here: welcome to the game!
no subject
She may have read something like that before, but once she finds out she'll be interested. That's totally okay. I can get that way too.
no subject
Muse Name/Journal: Roxas/
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: Yes
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: Roxas is terrible at hiding emotion, and even worse at denying it.
What would she hear?: It's really easy to tell when he's upset or something's bothering him.
Is there anything else I should know?: He does have a short temper but that's about it
no subject
Muse Name/Journal: Katsuie Shibata/
Canon: Samurai Warriors 4
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: Yes
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: Katsuie is pretty much an open book when it comes to his feelings. The only ones he tries to hide are any that amount to affection/care, at which point he tries to cover it up by being snappy, defensive and/or indifferent. On all accounts, he is pretty bad at hiding his emotions!
What would she hear?: All the tsun, really! Katsuie is honest about his negative emotions and tries to hide most of his positive ones, so she'll probably be able to detect his awkwardness and embarrassment.
Is there anything else I should know?: Point out his true emotions to him and he will deny it 5ever, but push him too much and he will get angry.
no subject
Muse Name/Journal: Akira/this one
Canon: Shin Megami Tensei IV
Can Athena hear your muse's discord?: sure
If your muse is good at hiding emotion, how much could she hear?: Whatever you think is appropriate at the time. Akira has a lot of practice putting on faces that get the best results in a situation, which in and of itself is probably really obvious after a while to anyone who knows what to look for. Getting a read on what he's actually feeling isn't impossible but would certainly be more of a challenge.
What would she hear?: Depends on the situation, probably; I'll keep in mind to include cues when threading with her. Most likely it's going to be something along the lines of "nowhere near as sure of himself/what he's doing as he looks like".
Is there anything else I should know?: This is actually something that someone does to him in canon, funny enough - there's a blind NPC who says that she's become very good at getting information from voices, then immediately remarks that Akira hides his real feelings a lot. So...yeah, that much should be very obvious.
Beyond that might be tougher, because lol not completely human; demonoids tend to be sharply self-interested,and a lot of what's going on in Akira's head is feeling that he Wants something and then a conscious process of "okay, I want thing, how do I get thing".
