You've seen that my and Akira's profiles call us Phantom Thieves, right? It's a little misleading, since we don't steal objects, like the thieves in stories. Our target is the hearts, or rather the manifestations of the distorted desires of warped individuals.
The psience behind it is a little complicated, but the gist of it is that we enter a world built out of the cognition of a person who sees the world in a distorted way, make them aware that their desires can be stolen, and take the object those desires take the form of within the cognitive world. We do have to fight dangerous manifestations of negative emotions, but we have powers that give us a strong advantage.
No, that's actually how it's spelled. Cognitive Psience is a mixture of supernatural and scientific, based in theories of the power of cognition. Since it leans more heavily on the supernatural side, people who study it refer to it as psience rather than science.
