He's... stubborn. She can give him that. Taking in her would be rescuer. "You can lecture me to my arrogance once you're settled. Come on."

She moves forward to where he's struggling to sit up, to move himself off the floor where they've left them. What a pair they make, an old woman and a battered disorientated young man. Blind leading the blind, but it doesn't stop her. She comes to her knees, slipping a hand across her back to his opposite shoulder, and another this side, to help lever him up, tuck him into her side to support his weight. "Up you get, easy now."
