( Boastful was something Addie was trying to aim for in this attempt. It was that or flattered or amused. )

It might be but I always enjoyed more when it came to hearing stories and recollections from others! ( Plus asking questions always had that risk of hitting a wrong nerve if a sensitive topic was brought up, unwillingly or not, which was something Addie wanted to avoid for now. ) People always seem to have these fascinating lives I can only dream of back home.
