So Jono blew up part of the Mansion

[x_jetstream]

Can't say exactly that I'm surprised.

The boy has no control. He knows it, I know it, everyone knows it. I'd be willing to place good money (not that I'm a gambling man...) on the idea that Jono will be fussed over, sympathized with, coddled, and allowed to continue on his uncontrolled, unchecked ways with zero efforts to correct his problems.

But I'm not a betting man.

What I'm wondering is how long it will take before instead of filling a bed in the Infirmary Jono fills one of the graves out back?

How on earth was he shooting down suggesetions? All Jono said in that thread was "why would anyone bother", "If they want to waste their time, who am I to say no", and "Well, thanks. I suppose." Tell me, is your grasp of english that poor? Shooting down and idea is saying "No, that won't work." Jono never said anything of the sort. Jono couldn't really say anything like that because he doesn't know what will and won't work because his power isn't understood. By ANYONE.

Yes, Ms. Frost did take the initiative, but at no point did she suggest that what she'd done would help Jono learn control. The suits she made, from what I understand of her notes, controled his power for him. They were, she said herself, "a stopgap measure".

As for your attempt to tie John's case in, there is actually a very clear cut difference between the two. What Jono did was an accident. John intentionally set out to harm others. And the hyperbole is really not necessary. John was never going to be "tried for murder", and Jono is certainly not recieving "a big smile and a pat on the back".
