I'm a bit unsure of what your question is.. but um. Anyway. I believe that everything has a soul/spirit/lifeforce (Anisim). So yeah, I think that plants have souls along with animals. And I try my best to cause no souls any harm.
But from my opinion, though plants have souls, they can't feel pain. They can feel loss and uneasyness, but not pain in the way that animals/humans can. I respect plants. I've talked to plants. I thank them with rituals for spareing their life for mine. But simply, I eat them because I can't live without them. True, I feel more sympathy for animals, probably simply because I have a better understanding of them and they relate more to me...
Anyway. Yeah. I don't really know what you were asking. xP
And, yep, I have animal and human empathy.. and.. maybe.

Yesterday Vornakos made me a healing construct which is working so far.
I was bored, so against my normal values I tried manipulating someone. Made them raise their arms above their head in about two minutes, then stopped.
I've realized something I do. I've recently noticed that I hardly rely on my sight around people, I always identify people by senseing them. But it really hit me recently. I started trying to pay attention to people visually and ended up realizing just how much I "sense" rather than look. It's pretty strange really. It's like.. I see peoples personality and rarely do I look at their physical self. It's kind of hard to explain. I look directly at them, but I don't see anything but who they are on the inside..
There was more i was going to mention but I seem to have forgotten it..=/
