Jimmy whisked across the hallway at a pace that was obviously abnormal. how could he be so stupid. Walking by the door and letting his powers negate the others. He felt so embarrassed, and around that cute Japanese girl. The thought of their eyes on him as he nullified their powers made his pale little cheeks redden.
As he came across the hallway, Jimbo felt Kitty before he saw her. Felt her in the sense that, he could feel his mutation reaching out and deactivating another mutant close by. The sensation gave him goose bumps ever time he used it. Which in the mansion was often.
Kitty came upon him and spoke, then Jimmy involuntarily felt his should muscle tense up. The little twelve year old was even more nervous when people came close to touching him. Good thing she just touched his shirt. He could have let out a sigh.
Jimmy was terrible at hiding his emotions. For one thing, living in the Worthington Corporation housing, had almost entirely severed human contact. And for two, well his powers were also touch based. He could drain the powers of another mutant for almost an entire day if they touch him. If it was a human? He could drain their body. Which was scary enough on it's own without trying to tip toe around teenagers.
"Hello Katherine." He began after a pause. He poorly attempted to gather up his emotions and drain his face of his shame. "I, Uhm.. Just saw the news..." He started then stopped. As if it explained it all. "And the older kids say it's a cover up!" He accidentally blurted. Recoiling from this, he turned his head. Mentally scolding himself for such an outburst.
