    I was actually just responding to your “well actually”. That’s funny!

    Nightcrawler didn’t get his powers in utero (although his physical mutation exists since birth, but was just as much related to his parentage), but he’s literally one of the only mutants to have been famous for his fully active mutant power as a child.

    I would “akshualy” be remiss in not mentioning that physical and mental stress activates almost as many mutants as puberty!

      Oh nice, I went down a rabbit hole with this: Jamie Maddox too, some of the Morlocks, Legion definitely, and even Cable showed some in infancy.

      X2 as well, but that might just be the result of army engineering her that way
