and yes i've been changing. for me, not for you
The man actually allows Oliver to speak (Thank the gods for that). So he thinks he's actually getting to him, especially judging by the first question.... and then he absolutely lost him in the second half.
Another sigh escapes Oliver and he simply shakes his head. "Listen to me... okay?" He'd give a gentle nod before continuing on. "I say this purely wanting you to be safe... but do not go out on your own... you just came and you are extremely weak. You know nothing about this world nor about being an Ascended and you will die if you are not careful." Being blunt was the only solution because this man had an active imagination.
"Whoever Eloise is wouldn't want you to die... you don't know where the other portals even are." What did this man expect to do? Aimlessly wander around until he found her? "If she comes through a portal I can assure you that you will hear about it... okay? Word travels fast and if she mentions your name, you'll hear about it quickly enough." There weren't many portals but enough for the man to get absolutely lost if he wasn't careful.
Now he could finally answer the one good question the man had. "What do you do for now? Learn about the world... this is your new life and you need to become a part of it. I have a place you can stay for however long you want, if that's something you'd like." Oh one more thing. "By the way... you probably shouldn't go out in the sun anytime soon... it's dangerous for you." Using fear to make the man pay a-fucking-ttention? Yep.
