I ended up reading the Kotlc books solely because people kept calling me Keefe or Sophie and Keefe's daughter. The Empath thing is an actual but rare thing and diagnosed by my doctor. And for some reason it is actually called being an "empath" which is cool. No, I'm not psychic. The photographic memory thing is helpful because I do not study...I also skip classes...I'm not even joking. Also I've called my Mum mother dearest for many many years. I also do the hand waving thing in front of my face, its hard to explain why. oh, also one of my best friends is a strawberry blonde with periwinkle eyes and he is literally a technopath. He's at college level programming and he's the same ages as me and can do any thing with a computer. *I pull my eyelashes
