Name

Is Ida really a medium? That implies she has some form of relationship with them, that she communicates with them, or delivers messages to/from the spirits she sees. I'm not sure that's the case with Ida. I'm not an expert on the supernatural, but it just seems like this isn't the best name for the power. I'll ask R.D. Hall when I speak with him. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 19:41, 8 April 2008 (EDT)

  • The only alternative I can think of is "necromancy", which has a more magical connotation. --Hero!(talk)(contribs) 19:45, 8 April 2008 (EDT)
    • Sixth Sense. --DocM 05:26, 9 April 2008 (EDT)
      • Necrovoyance? If you want to go with the whole 'seeing-the-dead' theme. --Ciwey 06:21, 9 April 2008 (EDT)
        • R.D. confirmed that there is no communication between Ida May and the dead people she sees. I'd like to look at other names for the power. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 07:39, 9 April 2008 (EDT)
      • Angel-vision!!! Just kidding. Honestly, the Linda Tavara thing I thought was lame until this GN, but this power just killed it for me. I don't think I'll read the GN's after this. Seeing dead people? Erg.--Bob (talk) 08:49, 9 April 2008 (EDT)
  • Ghostbuster. --DocM 10:41, 9 April 2008 (EDT)
  • Spectral viewing! ooooh... nice and creepy!  :) (Admin 10:46, 9 April 2008 (EDT))
  • ESP would be the most appropriate for this ability in my opinion because we don't know if Ida does or had a relationship with the spirits but we cannot ignore that possibility plus it was absorbed by Linda Tavara and she is "dead" (don't know for sure about that either) so we don't know the limits of the power. --Horrorman 11:24, 9 April 2008 (EDT)
    • Short of calling it "Haley Joel Osment", I think "spectral viewing" fits nicely. I'd like to see some other suggestions, though. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 13:10, 9 April 2008 (EDT)
  • Until we know more about what really goes on, best may be "Ida May's ability". --Tisco 13:43, 9 April 2008 (EDT)
    • I concur with Ida May's ability because until we have another novel with Linda in it and her using this ability we don't know it's limits. Horrorman 13:46, 9 April 2008 (EDT)
