[oh right. well in a way he's glad she brought it up because he had no idea how to broach the subject or if he even should.]

sorry.

it only works with monsters and i can't always control it. i didn't mean to break anything.

[he knows nothing about mental wards, but if she had to build them up again, then that implies he broke them, right?]

[multiverse]

Oh, don't spare my feelings now.

( "monster." the irony is that parisa probably ordinarily would like being called a monster thanks to the inherent presumption of strength in the name. not right now though, when she looks about as monstrous as she feels. )

It was impressive. Since you can't control it, does that mean you've never been trained? Did you go to school for it or anything?

[leavening]

[???]

no

i've only been able to do it for about a year.

1/2

[multiverse]

2/2

( > has only been able to do it for a year
> is already outmatching parisa, the best telepath still alive in her world )

Well.
You need to be trained, then. Don't you think? Or are you just going to avoid presumed monsters.

[leavening]

i can't do that, i live with one.

[not that Eunhyuk seems prone to biting, but Hyunsu does want to stab him sometimes. However:]

who would train me?

[multiverse]

( forgone conclusion: )

Me, naturally. And Professor Charles Xavier — do you know him?

[leavening]

no i've never heard of him.

[multiverse]

He trains people with powers. He calls them mutants, I’d call them magicians, you’d call them monsters. Same difference, as I see it.
He’s also a very talented telepath, like me. If you didn’t know, that’s why I’m so intrigued by you.

[leavening]

i think there might be some difference. most of the monsters from my world aren't like me.

he won't mind you volunteering him? he doesn't know me.

[multiverse]

Well, that’s expected when you cross hairs in the multiverse.

You really don’t know the Professor if you think he’d mind. He always wants new pupils.
And anyway, just having me as your mentor wouldn’t be so bad, would it?

[leavening]

i guess not. i've never really had one before.

[multiverse]

Technically, I’ve never had a pupil either. I’m not exactly the teaching type.
But while we’re here, I figure why not? When in Rome.

[leavening]

this is england.

[multiverse]

[multiverse]

Right. So when you say you’ve never had a mentor, does that mean you’ve never been to school? I don’t need to teach you timetables do I?

[leavening]

i dropped out of high school. but i had a normal korean education before that.

[multiverse]

Oh, good. We can skip right to the fun part.

When are you free?

[leavening]

i'm usually free.

[Unless he's hanging out with Eunyu or being bossed around by Eunhyuk, but this isn't like Green Home when he had to regularly patrol or go on errands. There's a lot of downtime.]

there isn't a lot to do here when they aren't making us play shitty mafia games.

[multiverse]

I was dead for most of it, so in that way, I don't think I've ever had more free time.
But noted. We're starting from the ground up, so it'll be hard work. But by the end of it, you'll hopefully have some control over it.

[leavening]

i guess we'll find out.

when do you want start?
