It's true he is probably projecting his own feelings onto her. At his core, the last thing he wants her to think is that she can't talk about it. He's there to support her even if all he can do is listen and take whatever weight she will allow off her shoulders. He gives her a fond smile. "Glad to hear some things don't change," he comments. He glances between her horns and herself quickly. "I wish I were there. It's my understanding that you were less than welcome." He hasn't stopped looking at her for a second. "Start with what happened when you first got there." He will get around to asking around the environment and what led up to her condition.
