Lyra looks up, reaching a hand to shield her eyes from the sun. "Hello, Dexter. I have a human name now, Lyra, if you want to call me by it," she tells him. She likes her name.

I don't, actually. I'm here to discourage her human tendencies, not cultivate them. But that might start the evening off on a sour note...

"Lyra. Gosh, that's a pretty name, I think I will." With a debonair grin, I pull the flowers from behind my back and offer them to her. "These are for you, Lyra."

Lyra looks at the flowers with an uncertain smile and a fair amount of confusion. After a moment she takes them, trying to hold onto them all a little awkwardly. "Thank you," she says, knowing that it's what you say when someone gives you something or does something for you. "Why?"

"Because a pretty girl like you should have pretty flowers," I say, offering her my hand this time. "That's how it works."
