Chris would have recognised that voice anywhere, and punching was the last thing he had in mind when he heard it (or at least not punched directed towards Ray). Hurriedly, he went outside to greet him, ready to help out with whatever rescue plan he had in mind.
"Ray! About time you showed up. We've be--" he started, promptly cutting himself off when he actually saw him. "Bloody hell. What have you done to your hair, mate?"
His clothes had changed rather drastically too. The seventies hadn't gone back into fashion while they'd been stuck here, had they?
Ray certainly hopes that you won't be punching him, Chris, he actually likes you and would be quite disappointed to have to beat you up for daring to try anything, it would make him feel a little guilty which is a very big thing with Ray and should be celebrated.
"Chris!" Mild delight turns to shiftiness (he isn't supposed to be here after all) and then into complete bafflement, honestly, turn his back for three seconds and look what Tyler does to the force... "What are you talking about, looked like this yesterday didn't I?"
He gives Chris a glance over, scowling in a rather puzzled way "what happened to you then? You look like a bleedin' pouf."
If Chris had been anyone else, he probably would have punched Ray for that comment. As it is he just looked mildly offended, and more than a little confused. "I'm not a poof," he protested, frowning down at himself. "I've got a girlfriend, haven't I?"
And he didn't dress like a poof. He dressed at the height of eighties fashion, and... Well, okay. Maybe the jacket had been Shaz's at one point, but it didn't look like it was meant for birds. That was the important thing.
"Never said you were, Chris, ya just look like one" Ray nods in a manner which is as close to sage as he can get and then looks even more puzzled at the girlfriend comment, good lord, what has been going on since last night? "A girlfriend? You never told me that!"
He's almost- okay, so he is insulted, Chris tells him everything, and sudden girlfriends are just not on, especially not if they might've had a hand in this along with bloody Tyler.

Ray, you're so very repressed.
