He says he finds you interesting, or perhaps mysterious, and that he feels a sense of solidarity with you, for various reasons. From the way he speaks, I get the impression he sees strength and conviction in you that he... envies a bit, I think.
He's often mentioned he'd like to get to know you better.
This place can't be damaged by anything such as that. But if it would make you feel more comfortable, would you like to come in and clean up? I have some extra clothes you can wear.

[Behind you, you hear the front door crack open, and the sound of a woman's voice.]
...Nychta?

Nychta... So it is you...
What are you doing out here? Are you alright?
Re: Power Plant
Re: Power Plant
No. This is our first meeting.
I'm Shen's mother. I recognize you from the photos he's shown me, and from his stories. He speaks of you often.
It's an honor to finally meet you in person.
Welcome.
Re: Power Plant
Uh-- yeah. Thanks, nice to meet you too. Can't imagine why he'd talk about me.
Re: Power Plant
It's because you're important to him.

Re: Power Plant
... yeah, well, I don't think... that's all that true. But I wouldn't mind knowing him better either, I guess.
Re: Power Plant
Please don't doubt his regard for you.
In any case, it's a pleasure to finally meet you in person. Would you like to come in?

Re: Power Plant
Not at all. I'd be delighted if you would join us. I know Shen will be happy to see you, too.
Here, come in.
[she holds the door open for you and invites you inside.]
