. . . as to what use your mutant power might be put to. While this may be highly colored by my personal experience, have you ever considered becoming a therapist? There are many psychological disorders, such as post-traumatic stress disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder, in which one of the key forms of treatment is to desensitize the patient to memories or anxieties they find overwhelming -- much like our sessions to acclimate you to the use of your powers. Obviously such a vocation would require years of professional and psychic training, particularly in the area of finding the appropriate degree to which your projections will affect a patient, but this is one area where your power might be invaluable to helping people conquer their fears, not simply be victim to them. If you're interested, I'm sure Charles can be persuaded to arrange the appropriate training sessions -- and the night-classes don't interfere with my work schedule too much, so I'm sure we could work something out for you, too.

A therapist? Can't say I ever thought I'd hear someone suggest that and had never thought of it. Ain't really what I wanted to do with my life really, I'd kinda thought I'd stay in business somehow. I like that. And you said that being a therapist would require years of training - which I assume means school? School and I ain't exactly close friends.
