mindreading and telepathy are different things; seeing the applicant's past played out is a different kind of psychic power than being able to say "yo bob what do you think?" in someone else's brain

Good point. I will have to explore this distinction in future Telepathy Snub comics.

I do wish there was some kind of ~~~~ wavy-line professor x kind of visualization of all the telepaths exchanging info.

one last note: it'd be cool if there was some kind of 'well if you have to flap your lip meat to ask.... then probably not'
