Really, it's like this Rush has never heard of the concept of walking and talking. At the same time! It's possible!

"I introduced myself a lot of ways that day," the Balladeer adds over his shoulder, taking the stairs two at a time on his way up. He shouldn't stay in this building anymore either, not after what he just went and did. That's alright; he can find another place for a few nights. Maybe not with any of his non-Riftie friends, though, until the face thing goes back to normal.

That invitation does make him wonder if Iman ever told Greta what she told everyone else that day. But that's not really his business, is it?

"I can grab you a few things from your apartment if you want." he offers, because he's not the one they imprisoned in the first place. ROMAC won't be happy, sure, but they won't know exactly what he did until they track down the guards he chased away, and it won't take him that long to pick up the essentials. He's not going to risk leaving his guitar behind forever! The instruments he's gotten since the Rift can be replaced, but he's always had that one.
