For the most part, Liam just wanted to be a good person; he's always been non-confrontational and approachable, able to trust and see the good in people. At the same time, he doesn't have any anxiety or insecurity, he's quite simple in interpersonal relationships, and in everything else. Adjacent past honed rationality and caution in him, and his choices were not always in favor of morality and purity, which in the present led him to a conflict with himself (his past simply "branched" at a certain point in his life, when one event in one gave a "positive" and in another "negative" option, so no terrible childhood or anything else).
Even if Liam didn't understand what was happening and everything seemed crazy, he tried to adapt to it - he compared details, tried to form a general picture of what was happening, extrapolated; Liam's consciousness gaslighted itself from such shit, so he began to take notes and photos so as not to go crazy and not get even more confused. When he cooperates with someone, at first he will study this person "from afar", adjusting to what reality is for them.
From trivias - Liam is thin and tall, it is difficult for him to gain muscle mass, however, he periodically does physical exercises, so I can't say that he is frail (dogs in the park still bring him to their owners instead of a stick). Often tries to turn an awkward situation into humor.
Liam is very caring and empathetic, the other side of him is good at using people and taking advantage, and this combination is his gift and his curse. He will feel bad if he is close to getting what he wants when he has the opportunity, but his morals will be a huge gap between. In one past he could live with it, in another he was a "to be good you have to commit a few sins" kind of guy, so it just clashes with each other.
