[Most of Connor's enjoyment is stemming from the fact that there's nothing expected of him on this island. He had a small crisis going through the Hall of Mirrors, and the clown incident was uncomfortable, but other than that? It's just been...fun. Kind of fun. Decently entertaining, enough to draw him back for a second and maybe a third day. He can experience it as a human would, including having some carnival food. He wishes Hank were here; he can imagine the trouble the two of them could get up to in a place like this. He likes being in a place where no one looks at him like he's different.

[He's taken aback, not sure what to think. Is that what he's been doing? Has he been using her and not giving her anything in return? Is he really that selfish? He takes his arm back, feeling self-conscious about the casual contact all of a sudden. He does allow his shoulder to knock into hers, so they're still touching a little.]

I'm sorry I made you feel that way.
