"There are many of us," Michael said, "but yes, I suppose that's true."

Mischief nodded, she hoped that she could have made him feel a bit more confident about his powers.

Sensing her emotions, Michael decided to respond to them verbally, the silent pause was getting a tad too long. "You are of great help," he said, "now I at least have some sense of direction, finally."

"I'm glad to hear that, Michael." she was relieved the silence was gone, "I like knowing that someone else knows how it feels to have this power. Even though I live with an entire mansion full of mutants I still sort of feel..." she faded out, trying to think of the right word, "Out of place."

"There are no other empaths?" Michael asked. He didn't expect her to know everyone at the mansion, but she most probably knew different people than he did.

"Not that I've spoken to." she said, with a small shrug, "I'm sure there are a few more." she looked out at the grounds before turning to look back at him.

Michael followed her glance absently, a small silly idea appearing in his head. "That almost makes me want to get a nametag saying, 'empath', pin it to my chest and walk around to see if I get somebody's attention."

That caused a large smile to spread across her face. It seemed that he was becoming a bit more comfortable around her, "Maybe I should do that too, hopefully I wouldn't run out of writing room what with my powers developing and all." she said, in a teasing tone.

A small smile appeared on Michael's face. The idea was amusing, if pointless. "Well, then you can get a banner."
(( I'll be off for a while ))

Mischief gasped mockingly, "Are you...smiling?" she asked, with another gasp. A smirk appeared over her 'shocked' expression.
((Ok!))

"Scary, isn't it?" Michael replied, catching her teasing attitude.

"It is, I wish I had a camera with me to document this seemingly rare occasion." she said, the teasing tone still evident in her voice.

"It does happen every once in a while," Michael said. "Though I'll never become an air hostess, of course," he remarked, referring to the eternal plastered courteous smiles of that profession.

"I couldn't see you as one anyway." she said, with a lopsided smirk.

"Neither could I," Michael gave a short nod. It made his thoughts stray into another direction. "What are you planning to do, anyway - after you've finished with your studies here?" He wasn't too sure that studies here could be finished in all cases, but it was a conventional way of putting it.
