Opacho is constantly and unwillingly bombarded by other people's thoughts and due to her being so young, she is unable to block them out. She does however, know how to ignore them.

The only time a person's thought's really bother her is when they think extremely loudly or tend to ramble on and on about useless unnecessary things. Also if they happen to think too loud and wake her up from sleep.

A person's thoughts are not always clear to Opacho, even though she can hear them. If a person is having a tough time trying to get their thoughts together or having a rough time mentally, it makes it harder for her to understand. So it helps out greatly when the person actually speaks their mind about whatever it is they're thinking or feeling at the time for her to get an even clearer picture.

Despite the heavy burden placed upon her, Opacho isn't really bothered that often by her ability. She'll have her moments where she gets headaches or hears something that would upset her or make her uncomfortable but for the most part she remains unbothered.

As revealed to Hao, she actually doesn't like it when other people read her mind.

Unless explicitly asked, stated, or she feels comfortable enough around the person to tell them. Opacho doesn't let others know she can read minds, aware of the repercussions she could potentially face.
