[He is about two seconds from punching the dude anyway, because when in doubt, just punch it. But he actually does recognize those clothes - there was a guy wearing something like that in one of his memories, wasn't there? He's pretty sure there was, though that doesn't explain what a guy from their past life is doing here.]
Who are you? How did you get in here?
[Okay, so he won't punch, but he will reach out for the front of the guy's robes anyway. He's not sure what the hell this is, but he Doesn't Like It.]
[...Yeah there's...not a lot of answer to be had here, actually. He'll completely allow you to grab him with very little resistance, though, and there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of recognition going on here.
Okay. He'll just let the guy go carefully, wait a moment to make sure he doesn't do anything, and then move around him back toward where he's assuming Arthur's room is.]
Hey, Arthur. It's— Well, I don't want to say it's okay, exactly, but he's not going to do anything. Come get a look at him, see if you recognize him.
[He'll come out eventually - from the sound of it he was sitting braced against the door, it'll take him a second to get up and unlock it - and when he does he's got the sword with him; he's holding it like it's a goddamn baseball bat and he's 100% prepared to home run some guy's skull in if he has to but at least he's. Here. And not going to whack you with it.]
You have my apologies for bothering you like this in the middle of the night.
[It's tense, but goddamn, of course he's apologizing because what else is he gonna do.]
[...everything about this is ridiculous, he doesn't even know where to start.]
That's not how you should hold... Never mind. Look, you don't need to apologize. This sorta shit's scary, and I would've fought him, but I'm pretty sure he'd just... let me punch him.
[He sounds like he Doesn't Like It. That's creepy???]
[understand, but then he gets a good look at the guy and jesus, he sure is just standing there like one of the creepy twins from Hotel Overlook. Jesus.]
...Ah.
[He's not lowering the sword any, even if that's absolutely not how it should be held; his grip is tight on it, and for the time being he's just kind of trying to figure out what to do with himself.]
[He's content to just... let this happen for a moment because man. What do you even say to this.
But the moment passes eventually and he shrugs a bit.]
Since he just sort of appeared here, I'd assume Retrospec had something to do with it. Didn't think you could regain a person, but maybe he's like Morgrim.
