Since 'empathy' is one of those powers that means a different thing in every series it shows up in, an explanation is a good thing! Thus, I babble

HI THERE so uh. Horus has some stalkerly tendencies, and for various reasons Ash has suddenly popped up almost to the top of the list of people Horus is pinged by/would stalk. If one of the people Horus stalks is in trouble--dire trouble, mind, enough that Horus thinks that they might not be able to get out of it alone--then Horus will likely go to find help.
So. Uh. I guess this is asking for permission on two counts. One, can Horus stalk Ash like this? And two, if another of his stalkees is in Big Trouble, can Horus try to fetch Ash to use his jesuscockblock abilities?
There might be spoilers involved in that, actually--how familiar are you with American Gods? The spoiler-lite version is that he is similar to someone to whom Horus reacted very strongly in canon and--actually, their interaction was kind of similar to Ashes' and Chaiel's, in some ways. In a lot of ways, actually. And Ash might be reminding Horus of that person, or Horus might just be reacting the same way because of the traits they have in common--it's a bit difficult to tell sometimes, with Horus. Less specifically, there's also Ashes' particular brand of notgodness, which he shares with Kieran. There are a lot of gods, god-touched, avatars, etc. in camp, which is very inconsistent with Horus' homeworld. The half-gods interest him most--it's implied that they're supposed to be rare in Horus' world. The two people Horus are primarily interested in right now--Ashes and Ronan, specifically--are both not!gods in some way; there's also Will Stanton, Kieran, and Lina Inverse, and of those three, Kieran is also a demigod--in
