Riley saw the way that Liam acted so gentle with the cat, and he came to the conclusion that whatever Liam's sins, he was kind to those who were far more vulnerable than him-- and that moved Riley in such an indescribable way. He approached with a tilt to his head and then chuckles just a little bit. "Who is your little friend?"
Riley then leaned down to give the cat scritches as well. He also enjoyed the company of animals though he was absolutely a dog person and wanted one; but then he'd always wanted a little cottage and a large sheepdog, and a garden. Little dreams that had taken flight despite themselves.
"And as for the exploring, is the antique business a bit slow today?"
