Canon is CW's Tomorrow People.

No.

Whatever you think you're doing? Don't. I'm not the guy you're looking for. I'm not - whoever it is you want me to be. I'm not even your species.

So take a step back. Mind your own business.

They don't know we exist yet. I'd rather keep it that way.

[wedonot]

Are you a mutant?

[tomarrow]

A wh-

[ He stops himself. More wary, now. ]

They call us Tomorrow People.

[wedonot]

We call ourselves mutants, but it sounds like it's not an entirely dissimilar situation, in some ways.

[tomarrow]

What are mutants?

[wedonot]

Some people think we're the next step in human evolution. [And while he still thinks that's a possibility, he's not going to sell it as truth anymore, because that sort of makes him sound like Shaw. And that is not who he wants to sound like.] Something - possibly the advent of the nuclear age - altered a portion of the population's DNA, which expresses itself in a wide range of supernatural abilities. I'm a telepath, my sister can alter her form to mimic the appearance of anyone she wants to look like, a close friend of mine can manipulate magnetic fields... There are other examples.

[tomarrow]

[ A quiet nod. ] Not the three T's, then.

[wedonot]

Excuse me?

[tomarrow]

Telepathy. Telekinesis. Teleportation.

All of us have them.

[wedonot]

That's incredible. How many of you are there?

[tomarrow]

[ Good reaction so far. ]

Don't know. The group I talked about protecting - never gets much over a dozen. But there are hundreds. Everywhere.

[wedonot]

Do you know how you all came to get these abilities?

[tomarrow]

We're a different species. Not human anymore.

[wedonot]

Yes, but did this happen naturally, or was there some event that triggered it, or has it always been this way...?

[tomarrow]

It's a recent thing. I don't think anyone knows what exactly started it.

[wedonot]

I'm sorry, it's just my field of study, and it's always interesting to see how the stories vary from universe to universe.

[tomarrow]

[ A slight flicker: half a flinch. ] We've had bad experiences with geneticists.

[wedonot]

I'm not most geneticists.

[tomarrow]

Neither is he.

But you're not human, which is points in your favor, as far as I'm concerned.

[wedonot]

I'm glad to hear that.
