It's a rather quaint town when you get down to it. At least, that's what the Sheriff would argue. Warm and dry in the mornings and afternoons with a brisk coolness in the evenings. The perfect type of weather to just sit out on your rocking chair and observe the comings and goings.
... Of course, there's not much in the way of comings and goings when there aren't any actual people here to watch. Nevertheless, don't let that get you down! The town is your oyster and those roosters won't stop crowing until everyone's out of bed. Up and at 'em, rise and shine, it's time to make the day yours!
After all, there's nothing wrong with the town today and you might just want to savor it while it lasts.

Eh. Got no worshipers, ain't no god. How it goes, right?
[ A shrug here. ]
Why the competition? No reason, just 'cause. Why you? Chance, I guess. What do you get? Change your life, usually. Go back in time, go forward in time, change things around. Or change something for someone else. Or... whatever. You wish it, I grant it.
[More questions from these answers, if you can call them that. But what this man is offering...Changing time and space? Could it be that's he's like her? If yes, then maybe what brought here here instead of what she saw in that tear was him. The question may seem rude but she has to know.]
[ The Sheriff eyes Elizabeth for a moment, as if he has an inclination at what she's getting at. But instead of saying anything that may clear up her confusion, he just shrugs and simple gives -- ]
[OKAY. That was not what she was expecting. All she can do is repeat the answer back to confirm.]
Robot- as in robotics? You're a machine, is that what you're saying?
[Literally how? He looks and talks exactly like a person, even in all her tears Elizabeth has never seen something like this....or maybe she had, and she just didn't know, given how life-like he is. What technology could bring something like him about?]
It seems unbelievable, given how you look. But I suppose anything is possible with science. That doesn't mean I believe you though, can you prove it? That you're a machine and not a man.
[ The Sheriff just sighs and looks at the ceiling as if someone will come out of the heavens and give him the strength to deal with this.
Then he pulls a knife out of his belt and lifts an arm. In one quick movement, he peels off a patch of his skin with the knife and pulls it back to show underneath that yeah, there's only metal there. Metal that's woven just like normal muscle sinew but very much still just metal. He pushes the skin back a moment later before tucking his knife away. ]
Now stop bothering me about it, ain't a big god damn deal.

Well, that's one way of proving it. But you're wrong, this is an incredible deal.
Who made you, how can you be?
[She's equal parts overwhelmed and excited by this technology.]
