Without a Magneto-like helmet, Lorna has no psychic defenses. After a million and one encounters with mental possessions/brainwashings, any ability she had before to form mental shields without said type of helmet has been pretty well broken down. Telepaths would find that her mind is chaotic, and on a surface level, she has absolutely zero concept of using her inside mental 'voice'. Anyone with an ability to sense auras and such from other people would probably feel her magnetic aura.
She isn't used to mind-reading powers from Wanda, though -- just the magic. Which, the magic is a complicated issue with the Wanda back home. As complicated as the family itself also is, Lorna does love her siblings, but that doesn't stop her from still being upset over M-Day from that Wanda; not in a 'I hate you and I'm never talking to you again' way, but in a 'here's a reminder to not fuck up like that again' way. That was one of the times she lost her powers. However, this Wanda is much younger and hopefully hasn't had the experience of causing a massive tragedy, because she understands it's probably hard on that end too. If anyone thinks she is not going to be at least subtly big sister-ing all over Wanda and Peter here, they are thinking wrong (does it count as big sister-ing when she's two or thee years younger than they are in her world, but at least ten years older than they are here???). As long as they can avoid a lot of the tragedies of their other, older, selves, she'll call it a win.]
Nope, not at all. [She smiles at Wanda, finally pocketing her device.] I killed time by talking with a few other people too, anyway.
