No, he certainly didn’t… And between her tone and expression? Llewellyn certainly was going to end up taking it seriously. It wouldn’t be a strange thing. After all, people had a tendency to bribe his dog with treats already from his experience in the last world. Which… Wasn’t necessary. Pretzel was a weirdly social dog compared to some. The pup definitely took advantage of his cute wrinkly appearance and people’s bribery, though.
Little operator…
Llewellyn smiled a little, “That’s true enough…” He’d noticed she had a rather closer connection with them than most. For him, he found them a calming presence to fuss with and use as an unresponsive sounding board for his thoughts. With her, it seemed more… connected from his observations in the months he’d been working with and learning from her. “Mm… They’re living things, even if I don’t quite understand it the way you do, I think.” He shrugged lightly. He knew what it was like for people to think you were weird and not want to associate with you…
But he continued a moment later, “I, um- do hope you realize that I consider you as such. A friend, I mean. So I do mean it when I say I would be happy to spend the odd lunch with you.” Llewellyn had discovered over the years that a lot of people didn’t always realize when he thought that well of them and were often confused by the notion that he considered them a friend. He wasn’t sure what that said about him as a person… So he tried to mention it when it seemed important, now being one of those times.
