He doesn't absorb it, more copies at, as Peter does.
Lowri, you are right, but then why should Peter's original ability be called EMPATHIC Mimicry? If he can just absorb a passing stranger's ability, what is in anyway empathic about that? Sure Peter is an empath by nature, but that wouldn't seem to have anything to do with his ability. Why not just call it Power Mimicry, or Ability Mimicry? Or, here's a thought, Ability Replication? Ok, no, ignore that last bit, let's not make this any more complicated that it already is!
