Okay, so. Today I have learned that my newest...friend up here, elicits a response from everyone but me. Even Skippy doesn't like Dominique.
I really don't see what their problem is. The guy's just lost and confused. Sure he looks a little creepy. But he used to be human like the rest of us.
Took him out to the stadium where Grace and I practice our flying, and today I managed to almost actually take off, sustain flight, and land. It was the last part that tripped me up a little. Grace didn't manage it either, though I think she was more focused on Dominique watching us than flying.
She hung back while I looked him over, wondering what sort of body he even had. That was when I learned that he's more than a little buglike. He's got a shell on his back, and when he opened it, I could see the weirdest looking pair of wings underneath. Who knows. Maybe he'll be able to fly as well one day. It'll probably make a hell of a noise, though.
The garden is doing well, though Chris like all the rest sorta stopped and stared when Dom and I checked up on it. Another few days and it'll be ready for harvest. And Yvonne says that there's still another signal out in the city somewhere, though it's weak. So maybe we'll find someone else in the next few days. Who knows.
I took Dom out on a evening raid after the flying practice and all the base check ins, and while we didn't get much done, I did learn a bit about him. Apparently he was on a tour of America's capitol cities and had just hit Denver when...well. I filled in the rest from there.
He'd apparently been on his own for about a week in his new body, not fully in control. Now though, he says he's back to his old self. Well, as much as his old self can be anyways.
Tomorrow I'll need to make another water run. I'll take Dom with me and we can work out things we need to do then. I don't even know where he went. All I know is he's up here somewhere...Screw it, I'll find him in the morning.
