"…? Erk—?! Stay ba— oh," Tobias can't help but feel a sense of relief seeing that it's just a person. "Uh… I thought you were a creature for a second."

Tobias releases a sigh, finding his bearings again. He takes a moment to examine the stranger before focusing on their face. With calmness and composure, he stands with his hands casually tucked into his pockets as he continues, "Well, creature or not… it's whatever. You're lost too, aren't you? Figured I couldn't be the only one stuck here."
