[He's having... a very hard time so far and he's only been here half a week. Again, that swearing makes him cringe slightly, half expecting a raised voice and a hand flung in his direction. It doesn't seem to be coming, though. This man would just seem to be... a little rough. That's fine. That's perfectly fine. He's the first human being Motel's seen in-the-flesh in four days. Alfie can say whatever he wants as long as he doesn't disappear.]

I'm not sure if that's better or worse, Reb Alfie.

[Oh, that rolls off the tongue a little strangely, but he does want to offer due respect. The man didn't box him for running into him, after all.]

I was looking for food, but then all this-! [He startles again and crowds closer to Alfie for a moment when another door slams nearby before pulling himself together.] I'm sorry. Then all this started. No one said this would happen when I went looking for food.
