“Mm... Well, I thought it was afternoon? But! Time is a social construct, and I don’t think it matters much at the moment.” He responded with a small gesture at the agricultural dome around them. He’s looking a little twitchier than usual himself, eyes darting about as if he was watching for the next sign of trouble. The increase in fighting since rationing began has been, well not unexpected, but it was alarming. No one wanted to talk about things, they just wanted to panic and lash out violently.

He could understand somewhat but... Llewellyn was more of a pacifist as far as his philosophies wet.

Llewellyn at least tried to put a smile on a moment later, focusing on Richie as much as he could for the moment. He was checking in on the younger members of the sphere as much as he could after all. The fighting was dangerous enough for an grown adult, let alone someone who might not be capable of defending themselves. “A walk is a good idea though, moving around helps clear the mind. Is uh— Eddie not with you though?”

Not that Watts was going to go on about the idea of using the buddy-system right now (maybe...), but he did think it might be best if they stuck close to one another. It would make it easier to find them if something else happened.

Richie snorts at the answer, but he doesn't disagree. Time means fucking nothing right now. It's kind of driving him nuts. He tenses and then sighs at the mention of Eddie, reminding himself that Llewellyn isn't someone he has to hide their location from. He's a good dude.

"Nah. He's- I'll be back soon." His next words are slightly defensive. For some reason, Richie feels the need to justify the way he's left Eddie alone. He doesn't feel good about it. Guilty, maybe. But it's tiring, keeping up appearances all the time, trying to make Stan roll his eyes, make Bev laugh- "I just needed a minute."

He doesn't elaborate. His restless behaviour and the tight line of his mouth probably say enough about how badly he'd needed a little space to unwind.

Noting the defensive tone, Llewellyn raised a brow slightly. Yeah, the stress definitely had to be getting to Richie... Actually, he was quite sure it was probably getting to all the younger members of their community.

So, detective wasn’t surprised in the least. He wouldn’t have even blamed the kid if he hadn’t wanted to tell him where the others were, even if he would have worried. What with the growing frequency of fighting and stealing from those who couldn’t do anything about it, caution was smarter right now.

The only problem was, sometimes being cooped up in the same space for too long with the same people (even if they were your closest companions) could get frustrating. No, he couldn’t just leave Richie to walking alone in good conscience right now, but he could at least understand the need for it.

Llewellyn wouldn’t try to convince him to return to the group right away, but... “Do you mind if I join you? I could use a little break from uh—” He gestured a little around them, as though that was enough to explain what he meant.
