Vanessa gave a sigh again and leaned back more in her seat, trying to get comfortable so that she could focus more. Once she caught onto the mind of a girl behind the three, Vanessa locked on and began to read her thoughts. It seemed the girl was feeling mischevious, and wanted to play a prank on Stephen, the red-head and herself.
Opening her eyes to shut off her power, Vanessa smirked softly and gave a shrug, speaking outloud to the girl in the seat behind, "Spiders are marvelous creatures you know. They can spin a web in less than an hour with the finest silk, all produced from a web sack in their bodies. Isn't that fascinating? I do hope you don't play to use a real spider in your mischeif, somebody might hurt it." Though knowledgable, Vanessa didn't pay much attention to the thought or feeling of an animal, she just found particular habits and motions interesting, so she'd rather that they stay alive for her to be able to study.
