To be fair to him, he looked like he was gonna explain before Li'l T cut him off. That said, I'm always immediately cautious of people who think mental eavesdropping is in any way good, polite or proper.

It's not clear that the eavesdropping is voluntary.
Granted, there are other reasons for you to not quite trust him, foremost of which is that he's a stranger. However, he's an outsider just as much as Severian at the moment, which makes me lean towards trusting his intentions. Remember the guard at the gate checking for "witches", who had to be "marked" before they came in? Yeah. This is not a friendly town for this runewriter.

Orrrr he could just be a good guy with a kind of magic we haven't seen yet. He does appear to be trying to he helpful, since he overheard her distress.

Well, we have seen it *kinda*, I think? Iavin's eyes were glowing black like that before. But that doesn't mean they have the same powers and it definitely doesn't preclude him being a good guy-- I agree with Asterai: Dhemin is not a good place to be saying "hi I can read minds and stuff and I'm sure that'll make you feel very comfortable with me around" >A> I sure wouldn't advertise "freaky mind powers," as Sev called them, if I had them.
