"Yep," he confirms apologetically, sounding equally put out by their shared misfortune. "Shared group dreams. Rift likes to toss us all together into one metaphysical space every once in a while."

It's a temporary diversion, but he seizes the opportunity to inch his way steadily forward while keeping his attention locked on the - apparently non-human? - rifty. Maybe if he isn't thinking too hard about the merciless, sheer drop beneath him -

"I'm Daniel," he supplies with a fleeting, encouraging tug to one side of his mouth. "Came through like you, just over a month ago."
