"...The name doesn't, but the lillipup appears similar to a Scottish Terrier in my world."

Glenn takes a moment to process the concept of being near anyone. Even an adorable creature like Willie.

"...This isn't going to make your concern go away; I do not recall a time where I have been without stress in really any capacity."

Even with Clara, he still felt stress regarding his circumstances, and trying to navigate the world without her even when she was alive. He's been alive long enough to know that he has no idea what being without stress, or less stress, even feels like.

There's no doubt that he likely requires professional help, even in his own mind. But when he was alone, the only person it affected was himself. And the majority of himself that believes he deserves it was just fine with it.

Even involving himself with one person, like this, really makes his issues stand out. And further still, what would he be like after managing all these things? Would the current him fade away?

"Willie seems amazing."
