"Nice to meet you m'am," he says as he shakes her hand. "I'm Steve." There's an old-timey twang to his voice.
Normally Steve would give his full name, but right now, it felt right to keep things on a first-name basis. He wants to keep it casual and comfortable for Izzy's transition, but frankly, Steve needs all the help he can get in that department. Nothing about their environment is going to feel that way.
"A little over three months ago, I went through the same orientation video and received the same instructions about who I am and why I'm here. I'm sure you have questions, I certainly did."
Steve glances behind Izzy for a moment. It's clear that the other employees aren't used to having someone like him here, and he doesn't particularly want to talk in front of them either. He takes a step to the side and gestures towards the door.
"I'd like to give you a tour of the Complex, if you're amenable, and as we walk, perhaps I can try to answer as many questions as I know the answers to."
Given her recent awakening, the most interesting thing about Steve might be that he's actually giving her an option, unlike any of the previous parts of orientation. She was required to watch the video, to sign the forms, to pick up her equipment. Steve on the other hand, isn't telling her that she must go with him. He's asking.
