Llewellyn had to admit… “That’s a very good point. People are too prone to taking advantage of things that would shift their positions of power in the world.” It was bad enough the amount of things he’d seen without the kind of complication that presented… Though he was still reasonably sure that it wasn’t a thing that had been possible in his world, at least not that anyone had seen… Thankfully…
“With a name like the Gullwings, I don’t imagine it is.” Provided it had an obvious sign, he supposed. Even if it didn’t though, the locals could probably nudge him in the right direction if he did somehow miss it. He offered a small smile, “It depends on the team, my original place of work was… Less than pleasant, I worked alone more often than not. At least until they decided that I didn’t… fit… But I moved on quickly enough— and as I said, the last world provided some interesting connections and people to talk to.” So he hoped to find the same here, at least he was going to try to. “So I can see the benefits of working on your own or working in a team.” He ended with a small gesture. Not that working alone was particularly smart in some situations, he was lucky to be alive and not very murdered.
Llewellyn would have been quite glad to have missed that ball, he would have undoubtedly been a victim of food given his appetite. Of all the things he tended to be suspicious of, food was rarely something he thought to be cautious around. But he offed a little shrug and a grin at the comment. “I’m a detective, we’re supposed to be.” He responded a little more lightly, though his expression returned to its rather serious state as she explained the bear in more detail. Yes, it wasn’t complete given he didn’t know what the place was, but the bear itself was the point and he appreciated her going into more detail. There were a few points in particular that were rather interesting, though most of it sounded horrific.
“A copy of what existed in your world… And it was one of your first notable entities that your uh— team dealt with. I wonder if it’s significance had something to do with it being brought through the portal.” A random thought that popped out more than anything, if only because it was hard to not think about its connection to her… Like nightmares in the last world were often related to fears of specific arrivals… maybe some of the things that made appearances here were more likely to be connected to some of the arrivals. Made him wonder what else could slip through to this place. “Definitely something you wouldn’t have wanted to deal with a second time. Even if it wasn’t a perfect copy.” He added with a small frown, especially given the implications as she mentioned her friend. “Thank you for giving me more details.” He added with a small frown. It gave him something to think about, another strange details about this world… A strange, horrifying detail.
Annnd when you added in her next explanation, that was another whole level of concern. “So they’re influenced by the world itself, or—” The Aspects, perhaps… Or this mysterious, absent creator. Not something he wanted to consider, but hard to rule out given what he’d seen in the last world. “That’s worrying… In the last world I was in, most of the time the locals were welcoming and friendly, unless something manipulated them to change. The entity there did it for the experiment…” Which was part of why they’d turned so severely, and also how they’d come to realize that they weren’t real. An awkward little huff and he turned his attention to the matter of the aspects. “So they’re in charge but… They’re not the highest power, and they don’t know how their portal works.” And they broke it. They broke it and now it malfunctioned. “Less than ideal…”
Of course, Llewellyn liked to eat with others. It was how he bonded and got to know people. If you ate together you talked and eventually you were friends… Or something like that. “I’ve always been of the mind that snacks are best shared, and as you pointed out… I have a lot, they probably won’t be too missed.” He added with an easier smile for a moment, until he let his shoulders sink a bit at her next comment. “I don’t know about heroic, but I’m not in the habit of standing aside when things happen.” Her thoughts weren’t wrong though, his penchant for self sacrifice and caring too much might get him one day.
