"Don't feel obligated." Peter was quick to say when Claire suggested that she might be able to find something to donate to the festival. "I mean you're probably going to want to take a little time to get your bearings and figure things out, no one would blame you for taking all the time you need." He assured her. He knew it was a big thing what she was doing, even if she didn't stick around, but if she did? Well there would be other festivals, and he didn't want her feeling like she hadn't been prepared for this one just because she was new and not entirely certain what it was she'd inherited.
He nodded, watching her as she spoke. "It is," He agreed, and it was something Peter was well aware of. "For the most part I think this place has a way of being good to the people who live here." He told her. It might sound a little silly, but there was just something about this place that made it so good, that made people so willing to look after one another and do the right thing. He didn't really understand it but he certainly wasn't about to start doubting it either.
"Maybe you can stick around long enough to see if the same could be true for you." He suggested, not quite hopefully, but not quite not either.
