Things seem almost too good to be true at the moment. From my experience, when things seem too good to be true, they usually are. So I'm on my guard at the moment.
Wayward and I are staying with Lyron. It's not her house, but I haven't gotten much more information out of her apart from the fact that it belongs to some man she saved. Apparently he was pretty rich, because it's a nice place. There's a TV screen in pretty much every room, even the bathrooms. And the beds are really, really nice, which would be wonderful if we were staying with someone who wasn't affiliated with the Fears in the way Lyron was. As it is, Wayward and I have been sleeping in shifts. Lyron looks like she was telling the truth when she said that we'd easily be able to overpower her, but she could always call in reinforcements. And either way, it's not like you need to be a combat expert to slit someone's throat in their sleep.
That said, I feel bad mistrusting Lyron, since she's been so good to us. Like I mentioned, she serves several different Fears, but apart from that, she seems like a really nice woman. She's welcoming, accommodating, nice, and I guess she's pretty attractive as well. Overall, she's a really easy woman to trust, which is exactly why I'm trying so hard not to trust her. It's maybe not fair to her, but we can't take chances.
We met at a fairly large cafe. Wayward and I had insisted on a public place in case anything went wrong. Lyron happily agreed and then announced that she would take us shopping. Her treat, she said. She'd buy us food and any other supplies we'd need. After all, apparently she's got access to funds from Australian banks because of the Fears. I feel bad about spending her money, and guilty about using money that's associated with Fears, but on the other hand, it's using the Fears' own funds against them in a way, right? That's nothing to feel guilty about.
So we've just sort of lived under the same roof for a few days. I haven't felt comfortable opening up to Lyron yet, and Wayward doesn't much talk to anyone. Tomorrow, though, I think that I'm going to try to get some information from Lyron. I owe her an interview as well. I'll let you all know how that goes.
You already know this since you said so in this post, but I feel as if I have to repeat it, no matter how nice a person acts, looks like doesn't mean anything, even the kindest of people can turn out to be real scumbags, no matter what, down't lower your senses.

I find it difficult to trust anyone anymore over any little detail.
