"Okay. Lesson two. It's okay to smile once in a while and become human. It's okay to be goofy and be ourselves. We make mistakes and grow from them! No one is a failure. Thank goodness we have second chances." Lilura says, smile brightening her face.
"By the way, anytime you have questions, feel free to knock me over with them." Lilura adds.

He smiled at her and tilted his head a little to the side. "Okay, I have a question for you now. How do you be yourself if you don't know who you are? Or in my case, forgot?"

"Create a new you. You have to have some internal instinct." Lilura says, tapping him on the chest before fiddling with her hands. "Some sort of desire. Something you want to drive for. Something fundamental."
She says, pausing to form the words the right way. "Then, form yourself around those goals. You can be a whole new you, just have to figure out what is currently your first wish, the next step."
Then she shrugs, and rocks back and forth on her heels, "Well, at least, that's just my opinion. It can be very hard to shift your prospect of being." She ducks her head, not sure if how Casey would react, sort of expecting him to reprimand her for being a child and not knowing what life really was about.

He nodded, pondering about her words. "Thank you," he said, smiling at her, except his smile was genuine now. "You could be an inspirational speaker, ya know," he said, mostly joking

"No. I couldn't. The stress of saying the right thing and then accidentally slipping and saying something wrong would kill me before anything or anyone else." Lilura says with an anxious chuckle, brushing her hair behind her ear with her hand, a nervous habit.

"Well, you won't be able to see anyone if there's a spotlight shining in your eyes. Besides, I would be backstage to support you." He nudged her shoulder with his.

"Really? You'd be there?" Lilura' s smile brightens. "I don't know if that would add to my nerves or be comforting knowing your there, listening. But I figure I'll feel more calm knowing at least someone is there for me." She nudges his shoulder, "Thanks." Then she pauses, stiffening.
" except I probably wouldn't be allowed to. " she says, blinking as she remembered what world she lived in, voice getting softer as she continues. "I'd probably be arrested on sight. Thanks, though, for your support." Lilura says with a somewhat forced smile, placing a hand on his shoulder.

"Well, it's okay to dream." He paused and then looked at her and smirked. "Isn't it your job to be the positive one?"

"Right! Darn me, get your thoughts in order." Lilura says with a laugh, lightly smacking herself upside the head. "Man, I put down my guard there for a while." She says, rubbing the bridge of her nose, sort of flustered. Then she pauses.
"Wait, was that a word of advice from Casey?" Lilura asks on the topic of Casey saying it was alright for her to dream.

"What?" He asked before realizing it. He scoffed. "Please. You're such a bad influence on me. Making me give advice and such. Besides, it wasn't inspirational speech worthy."
