Does anyone know where I am?

Layla. I'm Layla Summers. [She says it proudly, turning around to walk backwards for a few steps so she can give him a bow as she does. Girls her age tend to be into the princess stuff anyway; it doesn't seem out of place for her in that regard. Nor with that smile, all happy to do introductions. Whatever's off about her - and her doll, maybe - it isn't how she's acting. Still doesn't feel particularly angelic or demonic, though. Is it possible for those sorts of things to be neutral, in terms of what they are?

She turns back around again quickly enough though. That she was already a few steps ahead meant he wouldn't have had to slow down for her to do that, and she hurries a few steps ahead again to lead the way, plenty confident about the route to take.]

I'm going to get hazelnut syrup for momma's coffee and sparacus for dinner, so momma doesn't have to. What're you going to get? [She gives him an innocent smile, just making conversation]

It's very good to meet you, Layla. And thank you for your help. I'm hoping to get directions and a local map. Possibly with a taxi ride to top it off.

[Jimmy wasn't sure he could afford a taxi, but it'll be an acceptable write off if the cab can make it here and get him back out again.

He's definitely getting a sense of other off Layla. He's got no idea what she actually is, but she's not human by any stretch. And at this point,as long as she's not actively trying to eat him, Jimmy's not that worried about it.

Of course, Jimmy being forcefully reminded of his own daughter might let Layla soar past any concerns he might have had.]
