Once again he was impressed and a bit surprised as his gaze was forced up to a striking woman. Jake held up a hand. "Not at all." Again, his tone shifted slightly to match her form without even realizing it. "I know first hand how tricky powers can be. And having to worry about tearing clothes or having them fall off should be the last of your concerns."
When his powers first started to be pushed there was a short time he couldn't stop jumping. It's one reason the doctors started to call him blink, because they'd blink and he was gone. From his perspective the doctors helped him learn control with the collar they placed on him. Just like the chip in his spine. In reality the doctors were lucky that Jake had absolutely no control and was just jumping to where he could physically see, otherwise who knew where he'd go. So they placed the collar on which shocked him every time he jumped which sort of reset the attempt until he had control back. His memory took the torture device and spun it into something positive.
