"Mutants don't spontaneously appear, usually our X-Gene comes from somewhere," Emma pointed out. "I don't know if there's really more of us, or if we're just becoming more powerful and harder to ignore."

"I wouldn't be shocked if we both had a variety of mutants in our family histories; mild healing factors, weak clairvoyance that could be passed off as hunches, things like that. Without the 'little variety,' mutation would inbreed too fast and you'd be a hermaphroditic Siamese twin instead of a psion."

See, Jono? Your mutation could be worse!
