[though it very much seems otherwise, he knows that it can't actually be a dream because of how immediately and distinctly not right he feels upon finding himself in this decadent little room. Doing his best to remain calm, he pokes around, finding an exceedingly strange book with his name on it, peeking through drawers and listening for sounds. Eventually, his search leads him out into hall of faceless doorways, down some stairs, and into a sprawling lobby. Just wandering, hypersensitive and quiet, until he hopefully walks into something that makes some sense. Just stay calm...
He finally stops when he reaches a window, staring--a little shellshocked--at nothing but fog. ...And there he stays for some time, silent in deeply unsettled thought.
Finally, he suddenly remembers the book in his hands. It gives him something to fiddle with, fidgeting with the little clockwork gears until something finally clicks into place and the thing falls suddenly open]
...That seems a bit much.
[and the book helpfully jots down his words for him]
--Oh.
[there is no way this could be a good sign]

He doesn't let her inspect it for long however, pulling it away and dropping it back into his shirt as soon as she shows no signs of recognition.
...This doesn't make any sense. Of all things, this should be one thing that she's familiar with, and the fact that she isn't sets him even more on edge.
It's his turn to be wary, now]
Hmm. ...Maybe this guessing game is not one that I can win after all.
no subject
Why not? You appeared to be doing well.
no subject
I did, didn't I?
...Apparently, looks can be deceiving.

[a little pause]
Though, I would like to at least know your name, if that's alright.

...You may call me Aerava.
no subject
Well, Aerava, as perplexing as it has been, I am glad to have met you.
