Oh, how I've tried to get you out of my head
And I lie broken in words I said
And I lie broken in words I said
While Phoebe's task was easy, Liam's required a little more thought. He was the type of person that needed to have things in specific places, organized just so and placed exactly where they belonged. Setting up the kitchen, therefore, with its dishes and glasses and silverware and cookware and everything else that he'd packed away in Stormbreak, was a task that required some thought. Still, he'd always been capable of multitasking, and as he considered the pros and cons of having the glasses in this cabinet or that, he listened to Phoebe as she described her bid for leadership. "That's admirable," he told her. "It seems to have worked; I'm here, anyway." He flashed her a smile. "Let me know when you want to set up that base of operations. I will be happy to assist."
As for the rest, he paused to consider. Would he be willing to lead up such a force? "You would be willing to have a newcomer take ownership?" he wanted to know, curious rather than judgmental. But regardless of her answer, he shrugged as he began to put glasses in the cabinet he'd decided on. "I... want to be useful," he decided. In truth, he could use the challenge. That such an opportunity had presented itself on his first day in the Greatwood was not lost on him; if he believed in fate, he would have possibly considered this meeting to have been pre-ordained. "Since such a force doesn't exist, I would be happy to help build it, if that was something that our fearless leader wanted." He shot her a teasing grin, perhaps the first carefree thing he'd said since she'd appeared on his doorstep.

Never thought I'd walk on this street again
Standing where it all began
Standing where it all began
Liam
