"intentionally hid" she's a fucking minor and elite athlete, she's probably way more concerned about hiding the extra cookies from her trainer than trying to "scam" people with fucking powers. cripes sake she probably didn't even know about her X-gene unless it's something super obvious. i sure as fuck didn't, and it was terrifying enough having my own status splashed across the news as a fucking adult that i'd never wish it on a damn child.

don't read the fucking comments. anywhere.

Poor little girl. I thought people with the X-gene test positive whether manifested or not? Or it could be a completely unrelated mutation, like, being able to keep houseplants alive or something.

Yes, which is why it's weird they're testing mid-games. If they didn't want us competing, the various sports governing bodies and the IOC could work together to pass rules stating how elite an athlete in their given sport could become before having to be tested. Most of them already have rules in place for other situations, although they can get pretty controversial.
