I never stay in one place for very long. I travel. Book tours, international excursions, right now I'm on tour shooting a documentary. . .

I'm recently turned. Still have a life.

( He offers the smoke before the tip of his finger ignites, lighting it. That's about as much as he's mastered of that particular power. It's all he needs to learn in his humble opinion. )

Here you are. Don't smoke it all in one place.
