All facts taken into consideration, namely her past involving rituals and the sacrifice of innocent lives; the presence of children in the vicinity had always been taboo. While Lilin was not the threat to be feared, it still made her uncomfortable to know that somewhere deep within, she had the capability of bringing harm upon them just as Lillith had. Such concerns had subsided with little Eli constantly running about and rather slowly, self-trust had appeared where there had previously been none. Attributed to Temeraire was additional caution, fueled by the blood they shared and Saul's undeterrable dedication to his son. Respect for her cousin was the main motive behind her interaction with the boy. Respect would be the component that would permit her to put the child's life before hers should a situation ever call for it. Nothing else. Whatever motherly instincts she had, if any, had not made themselves known until now. She did not get any tingly, fuzzy feelings of love and adoration when looking at puppies. ''Yes Teme, you can play.'' she confirmed, cracking a smirk as the boy's tail drummed energetically against his father.

Her eyes trailed back up only to settle on her cousin's everlasting expression of worry. The smirk faded off her face then, recalling how she'd felt before finding her coffee-colored landlord. Anxiety was understandable at this point; his was undoubtedly amplified by the child in his care. It was one thing to be in control of one's own life but to make decision's for another being was not easy, she assumed. Finally he answered, explaining that the presently undersized stable would not be an immediate problem. Lilin didn't know much about caring for the creatures; Barrett and Ezra would be better suited to find a solution than she. Time was alloted as her relative moved to take the reins before following suit with his little boy in tow. She hesitated for a moment, debating whether to ask if he needed help with anything but before she knew it, the male was ready to move forward. She led gladly, allowing her tail to wag with the excitement at the prospect of having one of her family members living with her - however temporary of a situation it might be. His gratitude rang clear and Lilin merely replied with a squint of her eyes and a genuine smile. ''Don't worry about it,'' she countered, giving his arm a playful push.

The two-toned femme fell silent as her cousin's question was assimilated. Of course he'd want to know about Barrett and for that she did not blame him. ''Chance meeting, I suppose - we ran into each other randomly in the city. He's an easy person to get along with. Been living with him for approximately four new moons now,'' she replied truthfully, noting the landowner's surreal carefree nature. Saul would have to see it for himself and then perhaps his nerves would calm. ''Why me, by the way. Why did you seek me out?'' she asked casually, keeping her gait brisk and determined as they neared closer to the property she knew so well.
