[align=center][div style="borderwidth=0px; width: 55%; line-height:115%; text-align: justify;font-family: calibri;"]There still were times that Lirim wondered if it'd have been better to turn back time, to return to a moment that was... better. Simpler. They had left behind so much in the old dimension, memories that were proven obsolete here. Nothing that they had known was the same as it was here, half of the individuals that had shaped them or even more simply... ceasing to exist.
They wondered if the old world was any better than this one, wondered if what they were doing was even worth it, or if simply returning to what they had known would be better. Only time would tell, and if they had to... they had every opportunity to return to where they had been before, to continue living there despite the pains of the past always sitting on their shoulders to haunt them.
Roy's appearance dragged Lirim's attention towards him, their gaze sharpening but not hardening as they analyzed the bobcat. He seemed suspicious, or if not that then at least wary, something that brought an idle smile to their lips. That had been common back in the old world, for back there it was common knowledge that the void existed and lived among them, taking on their shape and form. They weren't ever positively seen, always gazed down at with apprehensive eyes. Here, although no one knew of their true form yet, it seemed to be the same way, for one reason or another.
There was just no mistaking an aura of something of their kind.
"Of course. Lirim," they broke off before they could add 'Break' to that name, avoiding it despite it still being associated with them. For now, the Break family did not exist here, did not have any special power or leverage or history. There would be a time when it would come back, when it would have meaning once more, but that was not today. "It is my pleasure, and I want to thank you for allowing me to stay."
