[ By the time Cisco fires off a second text, Charles has barely begun responding to the first. But the novelty factor of these devices hasn't quite worn off into the slow, frustrating learning curve ahead of him, so he patiently continues on. Possibly a little slowly, in comparison.

that's quite all right. I have a similar situation myself in that I have met many mutants (what we call ourselves) but it isn't often they have abilities like the one you describe, or mine. manipulation of metals, or soundwaves, or being able to change shape. swift healing, flying, super speed. I have only met one other who is more like me.
but to answer your questions. I do for real hear other peoples thoughts. proximity is generally key although my range has broadened as I've developed it. There is something about this place however that limits me to single rooms and I can only hear the thoughts of those who share one with me. in my world mutants are born with a genetic predisposition towards manifesting ability. I developed telepathy when I was a child, which is usual. I close off my mind with a lot of practice. and yes I would be happy to try to teach you to do the same. I'm familiar with abilities being as much a burden as they can be gifts.
