John shrugs in response. "Gotta be honest...I sorta...ran away. I'm not sure you've experienced what I did, but if you did, I think you would have too. If the Professor is as powerful as everyone says he is, maybe he already knows all of this."
Before John leaves, Jessica replies, "Well, the Professor's mental powers can seem a little intrusive. I don't mean he's using them nefariously. But you just never know when he might happen to listen in, like, for a wellness check. Or sometimes telepaths can just accidently pick up random thoughts, especially if they are particularly strong thoughts; the telepath is inexperienced; or the telepath's powers attract thoughts rather than seek thoughts, like how Aurum's powers work." Jessica glances toward Demi (the shadow-girl is currently the controller of Aurum's body), who's been very quiet, and adds, "No offense."
When John decides to get up and leave, Jessica shrugs, whispers, "Rude..." to herself and then asks Malcolm, bellows and Porsche, "Well, you three are also new here. What do you think? Do you enjoy being around us Homo Superiors instead of hiding your powers around the normies?"
