Hungry, now there's a concept. When was the last time he ate? When was the last time he'd slept and not just passed out from world-hopping Gforce?
The fact he was even wondering should have been enough of a tell. The fact he was still giving delayed responses was enough of a tell. The fact he was accepting all of this and not in a straight jacket in a padded room right now.
Well, he supposed he could be.
It was all turning into a quiet, numb resignation that maybe he never came back from the Antiverse at all. Or maybe he tried and ended up in some other dimension with no way to get back.
Great.
In any case he nods slowly, taking a small breath and holding it for a beat before giving it back with a puff. Relying on the kindness of strangers isn't something he's used to. Suddenly he feels like an orphaned teenager all over again - only this time he's completely alone. No clothes, no siblings, no beat up old truck to camp in. It's a harrowing thought but he should be used to it. This is just the beginning of one more thing. At least the cold is nothing new.

"Yeah..Thank you."
