Greetings, all!

Character that has IQ/Per 13, Acute Vision +4, a modified Body Language skill of 16, and a SOP: Read the faces of people he talks to. What would be the best way to make the most of it, especially (but not limited to) a mystery campaign. What kind of questions should be asked, and what reactions asked for? What other tricks there are to make the most use of the skill? It's been quite a while since I watched Lightman.

Also note: the setting includes telepaths, and the character has Psi Static. If there are any things that would be of great use against TPs and Psis in general, reading them would be interesting too.

Thanks in advance
