"I can't think of anything that would have set it off." He looked down to the straw the waitress had left, peeling the paper off slowly. "For what it's worth, I spent the ride over talking with someone who apparently knows me in the future.

He recognized me right away, too, so we must've known each other pretty well. It was hard to get a bead on anything else about him, though -- he didn't seem especially happy or unhappy about seeing me." He plunked the straw in his water glass, crumpling the paper into a ball between his fingers. "I wouldn't say I was scared or anything, though."
