(though, now that you mention this, I vaguely recall something like this coming up in Clement-Davies's The Sight—in that book, a wolf sort of developed mind-reading powers during the course of the plot, and at some point hunting got hard for her because right before the moment she'd lunge to kill a rabbit, she'd share their mind for a moment and the fear/terror/etc would freak her out and throw her off, iirc)
no subject
