Subject: another fbc arrival
Frankenberrycat Quentin Quire arrived at the school today. He was the pickup that Jennie and Jean did - i did not realise - I am not used to being able to get to the X-Men's team reports so easily.
He is - well, if it he is older than 16 I am surprised, he is Asian - I think Korean but maybe Japanese or Chinese, I am not very good at determining asian heritage from facial structure without staring and I was not going to stare. Telepath - Professor Xavier warned me - and telekinetic - this is new, yes?
He is zero things like blond weedy grabby hands Quentin except angry and hungry. He was also higher than a kite and well into the munchies when I spoke to him. He has funny coloured hair, but it is dyed.
Stay in the office until we can talk?

Yeah, well, I don’t have so much luck stopping myself from thinkthinkthinking. It’s hard to turn my brain off.
You have mentioned that once or twice.

Think think about other things then. Redirect instead of stopping, is that not how you fight sometimes too yes?
Why do you do that, avoid so many questions?

Yeah, but redirect to what?
Because I don’t like thinking about them? Or I don’t like the answers?

Find something that you can distract yourself with I suppose?
How can you not like the answer to 'when did you manifest your powers'? I do not understand how that could be a thing that would cause you consternation!

Yeah, haven’t found anything yet.
It’s not that question in particular so much as the larger normalcy thing.

It has been a whole ten minutes since I asked!
So you avoid everything that touches that 'larger normalcy thing'?

Yeah, well, I’ve tried about ten different things in that ten minutes. My concentration is nowhere to be found.
…yes?

Ten whole things. That is a lot.
That was sarcastic by the way.
Maybe that is the problem and you should whittle away at those questions.

Sarcasm. Yeah, THAT’S original.
Thank you, Dr. Colbert. (that was sarcasm too)

That quote is not original either.
Have I hit upon something your therapist tells you? If so then you should listen to me more!

That’s sort of the point in a meta fashion. Also I am often not original.
Is there anything else I should listen to you more about?
