New Home…Again (Nox’s House)

[Legione Sumus]

Liam Wilson

Liam gratefully accepted the hug and was a little sad when it ended. Hugs were nice, he hadn't been wrong about that. Elyse offered breakfast and Liam shook his head. "I'll eat when Liv wakes up and we make breakfast for all of us kids."

Liam went back to watching his movie but before completely tuning in he said to Elyse, "Thanks for listening. Let me know if I can repay that favor." He might not be good at fixing things but he could listen. And he wouldn't even have to pretend to like Elyse. Or try to make it part of the game to bring them home. He'd never have to do that again -- not ever. That was almost as joyful as being alive and free.
