Kaz, narrating: Lying there in the dark, Alex slept soundly while I wondered what he really had seen back at the missile base.
Something in the magazine under the water?
It scared me even to wonder.
One thing was sure though – there was no way I was going back there to find out.
My first guess would be that it was a natural phenomenon, caused by the silo having a ventilation shaft somewhere, and a large gust of wind or two could then cause the water to shift and surge upward momentarily due to causing a brief vacuum in the ventilation shaft.
Good point, or water flowing in from elsewhere disrupting it. It definitely could happen naturally.
Hey Risiko, thought I’d update you since I’ve been busy. Happy new year, hope you’ve been doing well!!
I got SUPER into Depeche Mode because of you. My favourite album by them would probably be Speak & Spell, they’re my favourite artist at the moment.
I wanted to tell you that I really appreciate what you’ve said to me before. Like about how I’m deserving of a partner. I ended up getting with my best friend, who’s also a trans guy. He’s absolutely lovely and just an amazing boyfriend!! You were right.
Thank you for pushing me to be more confident in myself. Love the new chapter by the way!!
Hey Alex, happy new year! I hope this year has been treating you well so far.
Speak and Spell is such a fun album. If you like that one, check out Erasure and Yazoo. The same composer (Vince Clarke) was in both of those bands as well.
That’s awesome!! Congratulations, man! You definitely deserve a good partner and I’m happy to hear it’s your best friend. My boyfriend was a close friend of mine too before we started dating. For me, it helps to be friends first. I’m glad you found your confidence and that it helped you find a great guy!
