[Martin remains frozen in place as his eyes land on the stranger, welcoming the new Sleepers to the world, and apparently trying to ease the transition from squid to person. It's nice to see the examples in this world of people showing kindness to complete strangers.
He's still frozen in place as the man approaches, and he tries to will his muscles to respond. He tries to raise a hand in greeting. He tries to speak. He even tries to just blink his eyes to show that he is, in fact, present in spite of his predicament, but it's all to no avail. Instead, all he can try to do is... think loudly, he supposes, and hope for the best, even though he's not confident it will do any good.
