that sounds interesting! i'm trying to think of a way they could have met.. maybe back when she first moved to new york, she got into some trouble that he saved her from? her abilities are psychic-based, mostly precognition. she has a pretty rough history, she was kidnapped for her ability to see the future, so she could have been having a flashback and froze until he stepped in? maybe she even had a random vision of him being a decent guy, she doesn't usually get those kinds of visions anymore, so the whole ordeal could have also led her to trusting him more than most. tbh, she was probably the worst kind of friend in the beginning, if you could even call her that. but if he was persistent about helping her out and being there for her, i could see them being close!
