Vladimir returned Jasper's smile with a thankful one of his own, incredibly relieved to hear a clearly worded explanation of exactly where he was, from someone who appeared normal enough. This wasn't an easy place to believe, but, he'd already had indications that he was not only far away from his own world, but also his own time.
"You've already been exceptionally helpful. That's about the most thorough explanation of the facts I've heard so far. They're hard to believe, but, so's the rest of this situation." He rubbed at his forehead one-handedly, confessing, "It's all been a bit much, and, I can't figure out why I'm here. And to all appearances, stuck here- I believe that my home's in a distant galaxy, and doesn't exist yet. But things could be worse."
There were definitely far worse things than speaking to such a lovely man that he didn't own, who was offering assistance for no reason, and, was he even showing some vague sense of interest? He was certain that it was just a general curiosity, and not the incredibly unlikely sort of interest he'd prefer, but he'd enjoy the company at least. He smiled and asked, "I've been told the library is a worthwhile place. So you've found it helpful, then? Others have mentioned that the education here is rather, hrm, informal."
