Xie realises belatedly that it's the very concept of magic he's having issue with, but by that point they're with the others and Quill takes over the explanation. It's probably better that way.
He gives Kevin a reassuring look when he glances his way - almost reaching out through the link to tell him it's going to be okay, but stopping himself again. One thing at a time.
It's strange, though, to have to hold himself back from something that's become so natural to them.
Xie makes the call when they're on the way, grumpily admitting that yes, okay, he needs his help again, shut the fuck up gloating about it Kexing this is serious. He doesn't know how much of the Mandarin Kevin will actually understand in this state, so he's careful what he says, but he does explain it's magical and memory related and they don't actually know, exactly, what happened so hopefully Kexing can help them figure it out.
