I do things all the time that are full on flat out telepathy -- what I lovingly call "drive-by psychic"
if I "thought about it", it wouldn't work
the thought stops the process . . . the observer, basically, makes the "observed" self-conscious
and this state of "vibration" tilts the process enough to make that which is telepathically "transported"

and pour out the one side AWAY from the receiver
so I "discover it" after it happens and not before
the act of observation not only deflects the focus of the one being observed (a CRITICAL component), it also (at a quantum level) impacts the action itself
