A. In theatre, asides, are things that a characters says to the audience which aren't 'heard' by the other characters on stage. So you can have your mind reading character, relay the thoughts of the other characters to the audience or... you can indicate that the dialogue is not being spoken aloud by any of the people on stage by putting it in italics or brackets...and when it is performed it can be projected from hidden speakers. Your mind reading character will react to these voices when none of the other characters do. So it should be implied that he/she is hearing the thoughts of the surrounding characters.
