He'd met Lin early on in this event. They'd gone out for pizza and then fought some zombies - which was about par for the course for this island, by all appearances. Since then he'd felt oddly comforted by her presence. Perhaps, in a world filled with uncertainty, it was just nice to know that somebody had your back when it mattered.

Also, she could fling about boulders three times his size with her mind. That didn't hurt.

He was strolling downtown as the stars came out, trying to clear his head. He'd gone through a lot his four days of memory, including quite a bit that was just too much and too confusing to try to understand right now, and he needed to just calm down and think about something else.

At the moment, he was admiring the new growth they had in town: pine and fur trees, vines and ivy growing all over the buildings. It was unnatural, but he liked the effect, and enough was unnatural these days that he was not really bothered by it.

He closes his eyes and leans back against a wall, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath, just letting the world roll by him.
