Day 26 Part 2 Page 9

Vic stopped beside the pool and stared into the crystal clear depths. It was much deeper than it looked and there was a variety of alien fish like creatures swimming in it. Lexx waited patiently for Vic to say something. “When I was a kid, I dreamed of being an astronaut.” Vic began slowly. “What is that?” Lexx inquired curiously. He had never heard such a word before. “Basically, where I’m standing now,” shrugged Vic. “Oh.” Lexx nodded quickly. “I also wanted to see if there really was life out here.” Vic released a heavy sigh, lifting his gaze up to the stars beyond the garden area. “Now that I know there is, I’m a little disappointed that it’s no different than earth.” He turned to Lexx, who was listening with his full attention. “We humans are not the owners of making dumb decisions.” “My decisions are made for me.” Lexx was quick to point out. He really didn’t like the feeling that Vic might be suggesting he had made dumb decisions.

  1. Not all of your decisions, Lexx. And less now that Riley, Claudia and Damien are getting their ears chewed off for making so many choices for you and getting you hurt by doing so.

  2. Thus Vic lays down the point that everyone in the universe is making dumb decisions at some point in their lives. ^^

    Oh Vic! Your such an awesomely grounded person!

    1. He, of course, got that way by making his own list of dumb decisions…. and learned from them. He is seeing the others do a lot of the same because of their own (fairly) limited age, and it reminds Vic of his earlier self. He’s making the point that he’s been there, done that, in a way. And he’s prolly making it a point that he’s got some experience that could help Lexx, if he wanted it.

  3. I’m just loving the way you color/shade/highlight/etc Lexx’s hair and wings. It brings them to life! <3
