I bet there's some rule against you just plucking that out of his head, huh?
[There's a flurry of thoughts; frustration at this new threat being the forefront of it. Mainly, she's trying to find some way to handle it that doesn't involve some serious shock therapy.]
I don't like it. No, I hate it. This sucks!
I couldn't tell who he knows. There was more to his post, but I couldn't load it. Maybe he's got buddies here or maybe he's trying to mess with us.
Technically speaking, there are no set rules against my looking into his thoughts, beyond whether or not he is capable of either shielding against psychic intrusion or trained to recognize such.
[In which case, if Charles made the attempt and Khan picked up what he was attempting to do, well ... they wouldn't really lose anything, it would mean Charles was useless against him anyway.]
I suppose it wouldn't lose us anything, were I to try?
[ooc: Except I don't have a comment on my permission post from Khan, so I usually treat anyone who doesn't comment as 'hands off' :/]
[The explanation gives her pause. Ororo's no pro at telepathy, being purely a meteorological manipulater, but she's picked up a couple things here and there, mainly that telepathy can go both ways.]
Hold on, Professor. What happens if he's got some sort of brain Death Star defense?
[Because she doesn't want him going comatose because of Khan-neto over here.]
[Her thoughts run the gamut of confusion for a second, three or four Star Wars references crossing her mind before she remembers that he's pre-Hippy and pre-StarAnything.]
It means I'm worried he's got an ace up his sleeve -- brain, I guess -- that'd lay you out like a popped paper bag.
[And that's an honest feeling of concern there. Don't tell anyone.]

[He's going to be distracted from any attempts on brains by that reference. It's going to be a decade or so yet before those movies come out.
And don't worry Ororo ... he'll be going comatose for other bad life decisions.]
