[Finding his bearings in this new environment has proven to be more difficult than he thought. He knows Eddie's here and he's been at war with himself about reaching out. On one hand, they'd already been through a lot since they arrived and on the other he wasn't sure what the news about his dominant status would do. He didn't want Eddie to be let down, not after everything at home and now here. It was all a lot process.]

Eddie? I'm... fine. I'm a dominant too. I guess they took some time to figure out what to do with me.

[Part of him is relieved to hear that Eddie is a dominant. Even if he didn't want to be, it gave him the control. It made him safer in the long run.]

How's it uh - how's everything?
