"Huh." A grin spreads over Zoro's features as he gets another good look at Shanks, bemused at the coincidence. "Small world." Given his prior occupation, he doesn't exactly get giddy the way Luffy does when he meets an infamous pirate. But it's cool, running into the man that inspired Luffy's dream. After all, the Straw Hat Pirates wouldn't exist if it hadn't been for the original man with the straw hat.

"Yeah. Roronoa Zoro." He nods curtly, briefly wondering if Shanks might recognize his name as a bounty hunter. But he won't introduce himself that way, instead adding: "I'm Luffy's First Mate." He pauses. "Which basically just means I keep him out of trouble." A boldfaced fib; it's Nami that's saddled with that challenging task.

After the shock of meeting someone from their world (nevermind waking up in his bed) has worn off, Zoro's mind shifts back to his other concern. "What did you mean, this is your room? Are you staying here on purpose?" The possibility hasn't occurred to him; he'd assumed everyone was some sort of captive, and that perhaps those that seemed content enough have simply succumbed to Stockholm Syndrome.
