Yes, I arrived just recently, though I was not alone when I first woke up.

( in the backseat of a 'car' with an unfamiliar but polite young man. not the usual way he greets his early mornings, but he'd come out of the whole experience unscathed and judging from his even tone of voice, the incident hadn't seemed to ruffle him much. )

I have since met up with a few whose names I recognize; those from my 'world', so to speak. Though I am told that is not always the norm for those who arrive here.

( maybe that's what prompts him to make his next offer, the knowledge that he at least has acquaintances here he can rely on while she might not. )

Perhaps it is presumptuous of me to offer ( especially when they're complete strangers ) but if there is anything I can do to put you more at ease then, within reason, I would be happy to offer my aid.

( although he has so little to offer here - no power, no wealth, no experience - that perhaps making the offer in the first place is entirely moot. )
