It's called scoping, they use it to get a better view of their surroundings, in your case, a wall.

It's a borrowed brain cell :) they each can borrow it for a few moments at a time.

She's doing a scope, she's just a little bit stupid.

Awww...your buddy is just telescoping. It's a thing. Just having a look around. 😀

I think scoping comes from perescoping rather, like the periscope found on a submarine

u/ElySoRandom Oct 02 '24

Thanks. You are correct. Periscope, not telescope.

She can see the very well concealed interdimensional door that we can't.

In the other world, it is raining rats. She is a ball python, so she might grab one in 6 months.
