huh? of course they're light speed. pretty sure it's been stated as such several times in x-titles.... pr? the device through which the eye beam is fired isn't instantaneous however, so there is a bit of 'lag time' from thought to energy output, but it's pretty inconsequential on the whole and would be applicable (or helpful) only to a few people with speeds that could take advantage of the tiny lag. she's fast, but she isn't that fast. and even at her best she isn't tanking a focused beam to her head.
