So, they were not twins, after all. Nor even brothers, doubtlessly- But what was it about them made them so alike, as if to be mistaken for twins? Their energies! Something about their energies. One of the basic characteristics of good psychics is their fascination of observing everything they can, and in detail. Powers of observing seem to act as a launch pad for higher forms of perception, I'd had this fascination from childhood. As I watched them more carefully, I slowly became conscious that the MOVED almost as if in unison. If one lifted a hand, so did the other. They moved almost as if of one mind, so to speak. Yes, that was it. They were enough alike so as to be mistaken for mirror images of each other - until they spoke, that is. The word "entrainment" came to mind, a word used to describe people who have been subjected to some mind-managing so that they begin to think, act, and even, I guess, look alike. I began to get the fanciful idea the twins were cyborgs or androids of some kind, but then decided my imagination had taken over. Needless to say, I never found out what the twins were or why they were so un-twinlike, yet so alike, The twins and I swam a few laps in the small pool in the underground installation, they swimming most of the time underwater. Coming back from the pool, I found the jolly Mr. Axelrod standing near a small table loaded with food. We ate a great steak dinner with all the trimmings - except that I couldn't drink the obviously good wine because I was going to "work" in the morning. We had a somewhat cheery conversation while eating. Among other topics brought up by Axelrod, he wanted to know more about what I knew about telepathy. We chatted this up. I thought this was merely innocent conversation.
