That's fine - he doesn't appear bothered that she doesn't, but it'd have been rude not to offer (not... that his manners are impeccable, but he's not going to treat her like she's not a person deserving of equal respect and interaction, here).
"It's good to meet you, Kiden." And then he nods along with Laura, flashing the blonde-haired girl a smile as he does, and ushers them into the kitchen.
"Laura's got a good head on her shoulders, no? She's saved my ass a couple'o times now." He points at the kitchen table - and thankfully the kitchen itself is mostly clean, though there's some leftover glasses on the table and some dirty plates lingering guiltily in the sink. He scoops up the glasses on the table and... just deposits them in the sink with everything else, for later. Whatevs.
For now he's just going to get her fed and settled for a moment. Already-wary kids thrown into an insane environment like this don't need to be interrogated - in general, and especially right off the bat. He does assume Kiden is gifted in some way, yes, or at least someone who's been involved with less-than-typical dealings. But even so, being kidnapped to another dimension is pretty jarring. "You show up by yourself?"
Water glasses first. Then he's going to heat up some leftovers.
