LU 139 - Dr. Thornberry 37

I talked to Hallthorr today and found out some... interesting things. Poor thing passed out multiple times today, but there was a lot of improvement. His bee side seemed to really want to help me, and after a few passouts, actually started half-talking in common! 
"Whbzz azz I talzzing lizz thizz?"
I was proud of him and encouraged his progression. I feel like I have to be extra nice to him to cover all the shit I had done. Talking about the shit I had done... I found my old experiment logs while cleaning out the lab yesterday and saw something I had- forgotten about. That I had injected Hallthorr with queen bee dna. Upon telling him this fact.. he was.. rightfully shocked.
Especially considering the fact he was born a male, this may cause some- problems.
I mean I don't care what he identifies as, I'll like him as whatever but- what would that even be? Memale? Fale?
Sigh.
What was I thinking back then? Did I just want to hurt the little guy? I mean- I guess I did.
I let him sleep a bit since he seemed tired, and between me picking him up into bed and him falling out of it, I noticed he had an axe. I took it from him and inspected it. 
...A fully enchanted battle axe...
When he woke up, I asked him where he got it, and he just said it was with him one day and he didn't get it from anyone... I'll have to ask Frezz if he knows anything about it. 
After a few more pass outs, and sleeping and eating, his... normal side started speaking half buzz half common. I facepalmed. As soon as I thought we were getting somewhere...
But it's okay. I knew it wouldn't be easy. At least we've started to see a difference.
