Boober's heart sinks at hearing those questions (the second one in particular) because even though he was expecting it, by this point...
Well where does he start?
"I'm Boober Fraggle. Your family isn't here, I'm afraid. This is a separate place that made all of us human. See, I'm not from here either, and... Ugh, this is so strange..."
He would very much like to get back into bed and pretend this wasn't happening, but he can't just do that. When he first got here, and he was confused and scared, Riz didn't just freak out because Boober didn't remember him. He looked out for Boober. Time to try and return the favor.
"It'll probably sound suspicious to you, but when you're older we're very good friends. And- And I don't know what's going on right now, but-- Look, Riz, you don't have to be scared. Don't let me being scared make you scared, because I'm here for you while things are weird like this. A lot of the time, things that go wrong in this place fix themselves, so... You'll, uh, you'll be okay."
