[ Ben's rushing to find any other person that looks like, well, how he'd expect a person to look. Anyone or anything with even an edge of sinister notion will cause him to promptly change course. He knows it's weird to be running around in his pajamas, but it's all he has...and it really doesn't feel like he's dreaming anymore.
That is until his curious face turns and looks to find who called out for him to stop. He doesn't feel darkness radiate from her, but he doesn't feel entirely easy, either. His inquisitive brows, raised high upon hearing a voice, falter as he stands frozen in place as she draws closer. ]
I, uh... [ can anyone fault him, no more than a boy about to trudge through his teenage years, if he's a bit uncomfortable with this whole predicament? He swallows loudly, and more color rises up on his cheeks and face. He's already a bit out of breath, face flushed, but if she's a potential ally rather than foe, welp. It's embarrassing to be embarrassed. ]
Where'd you get that? [ A nod and wave to her sword. She's the first person he's seen, and while a moment of trust may get him into trouble, he has to risk at least talking with her. His head gives a little shake. ] Sorry, you're the first person I've seen here, and this is starting to feel more like I'm in...Middle Earth, or something. [ A nervous chuckle. It really didn't seem like a high concept fantasy land, but she looks like she could be plucked from some other world, that's for sure. Please don't slice him in two, lady. And please let this be a dream, especially if she's out for blood.
She doesn't seem entirely dangerous? Then again, he's just now realizing that her eyes are silver. He squints at her, taking that characteristic in. ]
