Years ago, I was staying with my rich grandmother for a while, and she revealed to me that she's more than she seems. Specifically, that she's an alchemist, among other things. I wanted to believe her but she knew I'd keep doubting until she proved it. So, she made me some special tea to enhance my dreams. In those dreams, I could move things, as if I could reach out beyond my reach. I could even focus really hard and lift myself off the ground.
When I woke up, I could still do it, and part of me feels like I've been dreaming ever since. Grandmother insisted that she didn't mean for it to have a lasting effect, but it did. People call it telekinesis, but it feels like the essence of my dreams is doing the lifting for me.
