i've gone back and re-read every chapter of this series. Chapter 7 really makes you think of how much it would suck to be a mind reader. sure, it's great to read minds but to constantly hearing the minds of other ppl, especially her classmates, can be irritating. she's at the mercy of constantly hearing everybody else's mind from different directions. i can only assume she'll eventually learn how to block out those that she can't stand to hear other than Mashiro.
