Holiday slows her walking when she notices him struggling. Of course it's a lot to take in. She wouldn't have believed it if someone had told her about it first. She didn't believe it after she had already died.
Then there was the sponsor dates, training time, previous arena footage, celebrity interviews, making friends, crying in showers, merchandise, terrorist attacks, live executions, etc. The arenas were only the tip of the iceberg and she did not envy Hawkeye for going through it all. She pitied the children, tried to keep them safe, but there was something to be said about how a child or teenager takes this sort of thing compared to an adult.
If he doesn't want to progress any further on what she's told him, she won't force it. He can go at his pace, but it'll all happen either way. What Holiday hears from his end is a MASH unit in Korea. Drafted. Providence didn't draft anyone as it wasn't military and the government didn't know what to do with the EVOs, so this was definitely before the Event (and Kiev) but still on Earth. So.
The Korean War. She should really mention the diversity of people around here, but Holiday doesn't. He needs to take one thing in at a time and the topic change suggests that he can only do so much at once right now. For her, the Korean War ended over 80 years ago.
"My last name. Rebecca Holiday. Everyone at home just called me Doctor Holiday or Holiday, so I brought the same over here on habit." Glad she did. Anything to remind her of home. The green ribbon wrapped around her wrist is her only cherished possession and it's just a reminder. "What about Hawkeye? Your last name is Pierce, right?"
Chief surgeon was also nothing to laugh at and she tucked away that bit of information for later. Perhaps she could quickly catch him up on modern medicine advances once they were both out. It may help.
