[Vero hates this. He hates everything about this. Being unceremoniously dumped into a strange world? Being expected to just save said strange world despite knowing nothing about it and having no attachment to it?? What a humongous burden! You can't just ask that of people you've kidnapped!
With all those thoughts swirling around in his head, Vero's having his minor anxiety attack. The exception is that, instead of crumpling in on himself, he's been focusing all that anxiety into trying to see if he can find a way back home by stepping into shadows or slapping shadows cast on walls like a weirdo.
Until he spots Mayoi. Then, oh no. Oh no, he knows exactly what's happening and his heart aches for this stranger instantly.
He takes careful steps in front of the teenager.] Hey. [And then slowly lowers himself to Mayoi's level, so he hopefully won't scare him too much.]
mayoooiiii baby!!! (arrival)
