[IC] Being Human

[KatherinWinter]

"I don't think there is a right way. Everyone must make their own path. The upper class holds nothing I want or need. If others can find happiness there then I am all for it." Liz was feeling alittle less worn down. Slowly she sat up and made her way to the kitchen. Even if her guest wasn't hungry she was.

[Vortex]

Willis got up and trailed her to the kitchen. "You are a strange woman Miss Liz you know that?"

[KatherinWinter]

"So I have heard." Liz rummaged through the cupboards. They were almost empty, she would have to make a run to the store later. Finally she put so butter on a heel of bread and sat at the table. It wasn't a real table, just a block of wood balanced on a couple milk crates.

[Vortex]

Willis was distressed that there was no food in the cupboard and that she was eating a piece of stale looking bread "Would you allow me to at least buy you a table and some food?"

[KatherinWinter]

Liz blushed no one had offered to buy her anything. She had always made her own way. She looked away embarrassed as she lied. "I can not ask that of you. I just haven't had time to go to the store."

[Vortex]

Willis saw straight through her eyes and saw that she was in desperate need "Then Allow me to give it to you as a apology for insulting you prior."

[KatherinWinter]

Liz wanted to refuse. She needed to refuse. If she allowed him to do this for her she would owe him, and she was uncomfortable owing anyone. Still her stomach rumpled embarrassing her further. "I guess...it would be alright."

[Vortex]

"Thank you" Willis bowed "Now Come! Let us.find you some food!"

[KatherinWinter]

Liz hesitatingly follows Willis. She wonders where he will take her. Will they shop at the local store? If so how would she explain this stranger purchasing things for her. Will he take her to the upper class area? What would they make of her following this well dressed man? This was going to be awkward. "Where will we go?"

[Vortex]

Willis hesitated for he did not know where to shop. He could no longer step inside the lower class shops in fear of bad qaulity items but if he went to his store how would he look with the poorly dressed lady with him? Eventually he decided that Liz deserves as much as him so he said "Fine goods and Co, it is where I shop, a pleasant place it is, there sell furniture, foods, clothing... anything really"

[KatherinWinter]

"Alright." Liz was nervous. She nearly changed her mind and went back into the house. She still wasn't sure why she had allowed him to talk her into this. She would look out of place in Fine goods. She remembered how everyone dressed in that store and she no longer owned anything like that. "How we will get there?"

[Vortex]

Willis sighed he just just remembered he left his car at the slum cafe, he would have to take a cab "Well since my car is back at the Cafe. I suppose a cab is our only option" By *pure coincidence* a cab was coming down the street, he hailed it and it stopped, Willis opened the door for Liz.

[KatherinWinter]

Liz hesitated before climbing into the taxi. She had a feeling that Willis was regretting his offer. "We don't have to do this. We can finish our tour of the area."

[Vortex]

Willis climbed in "My dear I doubt the place will burn down while we are away but I do however fear for you stomach for it cannot survive on a single piece of bread no matter how accustomed it is to it" he turned to the driver "Fine goods and Co on Imperialist Street please"

[KatherinWinter]

Liz blushed and looked out the window. She should never have taken him to her house. Now he would never see that there was good in the lower district. "I have survived this long. I will survive once you return to your world."

[Vortex]

(Lol if you really want to do the tour I don't mind)

[KatherinWinter]

(No this is fine. Liz trying talk him out of pitying her. Especially since he was so eager to take a taxi. Besides I can't wait to see how Willis reacts to the upper class peoples reaction to Liz.)

[Vortex]

(Ok)

The cab began to drive. "I will not return to my world yet my dear, I still have a deal to keep, and a Willamson never backs out of a deal" with the exception of his great grandfather who bet 200,000 on the Germans winning the war but backed out when things began to look grim for the Nazis

[KatherinWinter]

"Do you make many deals?" Liz asked curiously. Was this why he had come to the less fortunate part of town? What kind of deals did he make? What had she gotten herself into.

[Vortex]

"Of course my dear! How do you think I rose to the top of the food chain!?"
