Asha was a friend. Maybe the only one. How strange that felt.
The simple call out made Xander pause before he left the weird situation. He turned to look at the man, he was odd, and his aura was nothing like the man before, though he saw strange images and Xander had to blink away the tears from the barrage of them in that moment. But he nodded. For Asha he'd stay, not that he needed anything here. But maybe things would pan out better. He wouldn't be going near Rowan's place again. It was a good thing he didn't have any inkling to revisit his former home country.
"I can stay for a little while. I do have sleep to get back to. Shift work at the docks is not fun on empty." Or so Xander would imagine. He had a few odd jobs there in reality. But nothing like shift work. His talents were widely used to get what people wanted, and if they paid well, then Xander was all for it. Tobias though was a drifter, keeping those jobs. Always amusing.
Curiousity was always Xander's downfall and likely would set the man off again with his words, but friendly was his game at the moment. "How long have you been..." Xander wasn't sure how to phrase the question. "I think the term is channeler? How long have you been one?" He was by far one of the stronger he'd seen, if the potency of the images were anything to go by. Short of Ascendancy himself, though Xander had never seen the man in person and he really didn't want to if this man was a mere fraction of the most powerful...
