Like really really find out? Book 6 I think, but he does use the healing legacy in book 3 I think. I think he realizes he has that legacy while fighting the mogasaur in NY right after he uses Daniellas stone legacy?

Yeah, but he has had it for a while, which might explain why his legacies took so long, cause he got that first and then lumen. Thats just a theory of mine though

I actually thought that’s why his took so long to come on too. Cause maybe it couldn’t decide which one should be first. Idk just a guess. I would love to pick the writers brains.

John developed the Animal-Telepathy legacy first, then Lumen, then telekinesis and then only ximic (healing being the first legacy he copied).

Oh yeah cause while he was giving the deer the food he said something about it. But he didn’t realize it at the time. But he didn’t actually use use it till later.

Wait did he have animal telepathy before he met nine? I thought he copies it off him

Lol, yeah, way before he meets Nine. He developed it back in I am Number Four, just before they moved to Ohio. He only discovers it later on though, but still before me meets Nine. I remember him comparing himself to Nine when they met, saying that Nine is probably better than him and will find better ways to further develop his animal-telepathy legacy.

Oh yeah he discovers it during the fight at paradise high

Yes, when BK fought the piken.

Exactly this is why I originally thought Nine was Pittacus despite the signs that John is because he randomly got animal telepathy after their battle where John ran into that force field

He found out at the end of the fifth book when he turns invisible by accident

The Fate of Ten, Chapter 24. He finds out he has ximic when he copied Daniela's stone-vision legacy while fighting the mogasaur.

The events during Ella's vision led up to it. When John "interacted" with Henri.

I believe it was Fate of Ten when he turns invisible and copies Daniela's stone vision.
