Chapter 191: Chapter 191: North Avenue Irregulars

"BACK TO MY NOTES." Ruthie turned a page in her notebook before continuing. "And then we have idimmu. They are our own planet's hybrids. Basically, part human and part ulami. But their alien DNA isn't completely compatible with human DNA and therefore, most idimmu eventually lose their minds."

She threw Wynona and Luke a look of pity, but they didn't appreciate it and glared back at her.

"But, Tru can stop that," said Luke, leaning forward. "Seems to me that we've found the get-out-of-the-asylum card." He looked hopefully my way.

"I don't know, Luke." I definitely didn't want to promise anything I wasn't positive I could deliver. "I've never tried it on an idimmu before."

Plus, my healing history wasn't much of an endorsement. If anything, I had made life worse for Bobby. I didn't know about Ruthie yet.

"But your mother can--"

"You mean Caroline," I corrected, still not ready to embrace her as my mom.
