[nosleeves]

[considering what they came from, he should be less incredulous.]

[looking around mostly out of habit. really you can't be too sure]

Walkers?

[mercyless]

[ it took her a while to calm down. still hasn't quite shaken it. ]

No.

Just us.

[ you know what that means. ]

[nosleeves]

[so basically we're ground zero]

[sucks at his teeth a little as he looks to the caravan caravanining]

Where the hell are they from then? They know?

[he's not too worried about her saying no, she seems sensible enough not to endanger a bunch of people.]

[mercyless]

Around. Everywhere.

[ space? hell? she doesn't know. it doesn't really matter as long as they're not from the same place as them. ]

Only Dean and Nick know about it. The others would panic, it's been too damn messy even without that whole thing.

[nosleeves]

[slow nod and shuffles the crossbow on his shoulder. well what do now.]

[its always awkward when the two quiet ones are forced to interact. still watching the caravan wondering if he's better off on his own because he sure as hell doesn't feel like going home. his brother is dead, there's nothing left there for him]

[mercyless]

[ yeah and after the merle thing it's almost even more awkward. sorry about your asshole brother no not really. watches him, guessing what he might be thinking. she'd like him to come, not only because she doesn't want the virus to spread into this world but because he's useful too. ]

... It's a shitty group, we could use someone like you.

[ now that derek's gone they're practically fucked when it comes to hunting. ]

[nosleeves]

[looks back at her]

When aren't people a bunch of assholes these days.

[yeah whatever. her brackets are right. if he goes off and gets himself killed, this world is nuked. he'd like to think he's competent to survive on his own, but he's been known to make mistakes sometimes]

[stalls like he's really thinking on it and looks away. sniffs with a wrinkle of his nose and nods]

Sure, fine.

[mercyless]

[ you don't know nothing about assholes yet. smiles at him, kind of. they're not out in the clear yet but they'll get along. at least he has an idea of what she's been through and that's comforting. ]

[ takes her horse by the reins and walks beside him when they catch up. ]

Rick and the rest doin' okay?

[nosleeves]

[turns and starts walking with. trying not to make a face on how weird that sounds. he just saw her, to him she didn't go anywhere.]

As okay as you left 'em.

[technically its true]

[mercyless]

[ that's good news. she thinks about them from time to time. it's true that they never spent that much time together, but being accepted into a group was a big thing to her. ]

Dean's the one with the map. Funny legs, short brown hair.

[ saying this as they get closer. he's kind of a rick around here so you might want to watch out. ]

[nosleeves]

[we in another ricktatorship. deantatorship?]

[eyes him talking to hel]

Big group. [must be hell to take care of]

[mercyless]

[ worse than that. ]

It's a big place.

[ seriously they've been lotr walking for months. ]

[nosleeves]

Horse and buggys' a little outdated.

[seriously where are the cars]

[mercyless]

[ oh right. it's pretty similar to their little world's end minus the cars so she had already gotten used to it. ]

Don't get your hopes up about catchin up on tv yet. There's no electricity or anything.

It's like being stuck in the past.

With magic.

[nosleeves]

[only wishes he had a shotgun right now to make a boomstick reference]

If David Bowie shows up with a buncha muppets and a stolen baby... [it'd be worth it]

[kicks a tumbleweed out of the way.]

[mercyless]

[ smiles to herself. you're in for a surprise boy. ]

More likely than you might think.

[nosleeves]

[gives a face creak breathy laugh. it's the best you'll get out of him]
