The situation diffused with a little help. There was a lot to take in, not least Nox's belief that Elias was like him. He'd shown no signs, but that only meant he had not used his abilities since they'd met. Aria's definition of hell was a little extreme; it was just unpleasant, nothing she couldn't rally herself to endure. The care was appreciated though, as well as being somewhat novel; she'd never had someone to look out for her in that way. Actually, she'd rather have a tumult of emotion to deal with than an empty void, though she didn't say. Her cheeks had already heated at all the undue attention to her abilities. That Elias didn't comply - if he even could - was noted but Asha was not disappointed. His detached cool was what she hooked on to quiet all the distractions.
"I'm okay."
Given the situation, anyway, but by Asha'a very nature she was hard to trample down. She had a roof over her head for tonight, and despite everything she had also lost today, that was what she focussed on. That and discovering she was not alone. "I didn't know we had a name. Actually, I didn't know there was a 'we'. I've never met anyone else the same before. Thanks for letting me stay."
Though she had more questions about what Nox and possibly Elias were than herself. She slid Nox's jacket from her shoulders, then shed her own coat to sit in a puddle of both.
