People here were truly more open and kind than he was used to, and it was a soothing realization to think about all things considered.

“As am I, if I’m to be entirely honest.” Which was the norm for Llewellyn. It was stranger when he lied. “I was a little nervous since gifts and surprises don’t always go the way one expects them to… But I’m glad I managed to pull it off, regardless.”
