Telepathy
Ryo doesn't know it, but he's very slightly telepathic in the sense that he'll occasionally pick up people's surface thoughts. In other words, the stuff that tends to be related to what's going on. Ask him to make you a coffee, hope he doesn't put too much sugar in it, and he'll put just enough. Play cards with him and he might guess the next card you play. That kind of thing. He doesn't know how to focus this and would be unable to pry any deeper - or at all, really.
EDIT: This works only on organic characters and not computer-based ones, as they don't have brain waves in the same sense that organic characters do.
So! If you don't mind Ryo reading your characters' surface thoughts, please let me know. Hell, let me know if you don't want him reading them, too.
