When he says the same thing to Hisako, she just plays along and tells him to call her "Armor".
And then there's the actual conversation between them.
Jean makes statements more often then not, while Hisako mostly asks questions, and lets Nate do the talking and answering, until he kinda starts questioning himself a little bit.
It's subtle, but his last statment goes from "I know" to "I hope" and "I have to trust" about what he's doing.
And finally, the X-men plan using TP about how to attack, and he can read their minds and picks up on them ahead of time, and subdues them fairly quickly.
Hisako has no plan of how to actually attack him - she even outright states that they are not leading with their fists on this one - so when Legion makes a move, it comes out of nowhere and it blindsides both Nate And the kids.
