The breeze brought to her a familiar scent and she opens her eyes and lifts her head off the sand, her yellow tongue flickering she looks around her until her eyes landed on Tommy "Hi" she says with a nod of her head, last she could remember seeing him, she was in little to no control of the Komodo

Tommy opens his own eyes and squints at the glare of the sun. He looks back down to Joliette. Tommy himself isn't in the healthiest of mindsets, having been cooped up in the entertainment center for almost every day the past few weeks. At least, that's what he likes to tell himself. Tommy's heart rate goes up for a moment as he sees Joliette awaken, but it soons goes back down at her greeting.
"Hey," he says softs as he looks over her quadrapedal body. "Jesus...I'm sorry, Joliette..."

She was silent a moment and then nods "Yeah... I know... I'm a monster... Stupid Ferral... Not much I can do about it though" she trudged across the sand making a trail in teh sand behind her from her tail

With a groan, Tommy himself gets up. He rubs his odd hips for a moment before looking over to her. "...Hey...listen...I'm sorry...that was a d**k thing to say," he apologizes with a frown, "I...I wanted to talk to you...and...s**t, I've just made an a** out of myself, didn't I?"

"Talk to me? About?" It was obvious she had far more control then the last time he'd seen her "And it's ok, don't worry about it, I'm sure there could be worse reactions out there... I just hope not to experience one"

"s**t, with a face like mine, I hear you. I had this one guy feint on me...but...yeah...," he trails off, remembering that unfortunate incident. "But...wow, you seem...better. I mean, you don't seem so...What I'm sayin' is...you seem much more in...control."

"I...um...God...I dunno. With every passing day it gets worse and worse...harder to, to, to...make...make coherent thoughts. You know?" He says as his speech picks up pace and he gestures with his overlylong hands. "I've been spending...so much damn time in the entertainment room with the lights off...s**t, it's taking over my mind, Joliette...I really think it is...and I...I can't do anything about it..." he says this last part in a shuddering whisper.

"The animal? I know how you feel, I fought it... you saw the results of my fighting against the beast, it's not fun..." Her eyes watched his long fingers she'd hate to be in his postion, but then she hated her own too...

"I'm just terrified...Every day, all I do is wait...wait for the next change...scared to death what it'll do to me mentally. I mean...does it ever get better? How did you handle it?"

"Thats just it Tommy, I just about didn't handle it, I fought the Komodo instincts constantly. In the end it won, it had control most of hte time, I didn't have much control, I only do now cause the labs gave me some kind of injection to control it all." She stopped and looked around them "I honestly can't say Im the best for that kind of advice" she admits as she turns her head back to him

"Yeah...I'm sorry. I didn't mean to bring that up...I just don't know what else to do...that's all." He shakes his head in silence for a moment before he looks back to Joliette. "You uh...you still have that computer and printer...right? Would you mind...I mean...would you care if I brought my hard drive over there to uh...to print out some pictures...of um...of my family...?"

"Yeah I have it, but I'm gonna need help to get it from the darkroom I still can't reach it's door handle, and it's atop the desk, both it and the printer... I think I can use the computer part itself once it's like, on the floor and open... I haven't tried... even though I've been encouraged to try" She nods

Tommy nods a few times in thought, "Hmm...alright...You uh...you want me to help? I've got nothing better to do at the moment," he says with a slight grin, "That...and I want to see if I have any strength left in my hands."

"Okay, lets do that then" she nods her head and turns her large body and headed at a lizardy pace for the village "It's above the duplex"
