((Tau))
His eyes snapped to.
Darting around the room, the black dots floated in their respective white pools, taking in every surrounding...
Before centering on you.
Without a sound, the boy closed his eyes and threw open his mouth in a silent scream.
Uh...was he retarded or something? It really looked like he was freaking out, but unless something was wrong with you...he wasn't actually freaking out? God, this was weird...

Tau slapped her hand over his mouth. "Shut it," she hissed, moving closer to his face. "Look... I don't know where we are or why either of us are here, but I do know that drawing attention to ourselves won't be good."
She looked at the shackles again, trying to decide if she could pick them. "Do you want me to help you out of here? I can help get you out, but I can't guarentee you'll be safe." She paused, looking at the boy's face and decided it wouldn't hurt to be a little bit warm. "I'm Tau."

The boy calmed down a little, but the feeling of his saliva on your palm was not necessarily welcome.
Nodding slightly at your question, he said,
I'm James.
Wait...said? His mouth was closed! What the-?

She jumped back, supressing a yell and wiping her palm against her garment, still sticky with blood. "Wait... how'd you... how'd you do that?"

Fear struck the boy's eyes as he spoke again, his mouth still covered.
I...I don't know! Holy s**t, what am I doing!!?!?
The same mental communication suddenly became scrambled and frantic. The boy was clearly panicked now. He had all the physical symptoms of mental stress...sweat, confusion, rising heart rate and increased functioning. It also seemed that he was hyperventilating...
Great. A panicky, prepubescent clairvoyant.

"No, no no. Calm down. It's alright... I saw... a girl flying earlier. It's this place. You're fine." She pasued and took a deep breath. "You're fine. But... what have they done to me?" she mused aloud.
After a moment, she shook her head and turned her attention back to James. "Do you want me to try and get you out?"

He shook his worried, bald little head slowly, tears welling up in his already watery eyes.
Though he didn't "speak", she could certainly see that all signs pointed to yes...

"Just hold still and stay quiet." Tau bent down closer to examine the shackles imprisoning him. Any locks? Or were they just solid steel?

Solid steel. Perhaps some form of closer observation...?
[Check the bulletin board for that.]

Tau looked at the cuffs again. Any way to get them off?

Ah, yes. Definitely. There was a small pinhole in the center of each side facing the boy's face. Any small object would do, and being a bit of a thief, she'd have no trouble pulling off the actual lockpicking portion of the task.
