! I was going to write something that would have answered that question... but saved it for the next installment (coming tonight, with the introduction of a street gang connected to an organized crime syndicate called "The Plaids"). but I'll give you a preview: she can read him, but not very well at all. She's used to relying on her usual senses, which are painfully empathic, to the degree that she can just about read a person's thoughts by tracking their emotional markers. But of course all of that explication can't go into the writing. We'll see if I can find a way to get it across without too much explanatory language ;)
