     The farmer’s daughter nodded. “Yeah. I’m gettin’ real good with a machete, and I can handle a knife pretty well. I mean I’ve never used a sword, but I could learn.” She gave an attempt at a wry smile, quirking up one corner of her mouth. “I’m good at foraging. I can find nuts and berries, and I know what’s poisonous. I’m a useless hunter, though.” She had the same anxious tightness to her chest that she used to get writing cover letters for internships in Atlanta. Trying to talk about why she was an asset and worth the time and and effort. Maggie had never felt comfortable talking herself up.

     Michonne had seen the woman in action. She'd no doubt in her mind that the other could do some serious damage. Her eyes flicked over Maggie as she took her time to mull over the offer. She'd always believed she'd be doing it alone. But... would another person really be so bad? Someone to watch her back? It had been useful in the past, but it had also bitten her in the ass too many times to count. However, before Michonne could collect her thoughts, she found herself nodding.

     "Fine." She shifted the bag on her shoulder. "Hope you've already said your good-byes, because I'm goin' now." She had waited long enough as it was; now that she was moving, she wasn't stopping until she held the Governor's head in her hands. Preferably not attached to his body any longer. Shaking those thoughts from her head, she looked back to the other woman. "Don't worry about hunting." A small smile grew on her lips. "I happen to be an excellent hunter."

"What are you doing here?"

"Of course I moved on!"

"I can’t wait for you."

"Why didn’t you wait for me?"

"Aren’t sunrises a little cliche?"

"As long as it doesn’t require me pants, I’m in."

"It’s your time to shine."

"And we’re sure that’s not illegal?"

"And if I say yes?"

"Dude, what the hell?"

"Wait, since when are you gay?"

"What the hell did I miss?"

"I was gone for for five minutes!"

"She/he’s been my bed for the last twenty four hours, and I can’t remember their name. Think it would be rude to ask for it again?"

"I don’t see anything wrong with a shotgun Vegas wedding."

"If you don’t shut up, I will personally stab you in the eye with a spork."

"Is that really your version of an apology?"

"I hope you step on a lego every day for the rest of your life."

"Now that’s just stupid."

"I’m prepared, I think."

"We finally got it right."

"I choose you. No one else. You."

"I gave up a long time ago."

"In what world was that okay?"

"This is not a bad vampire romance novel, please shut up with the dramatics."

"Kinda wanna have sex, but also kinda wanna eat pizza."

"We could always just run away."

"I’m dying. How’s that for a dinner conversation starter?"

"Please stop asking me out."

"Love is a fairytale told to children."

"That wasn’t me."

"I didn’t do it!"

"That may have been my fault."

"Is this your first date?"

"You’re the biggest wimp."

"You’re pretty shy."

"Are you trying to hold my hand?"

"Let me sleep."

"There’s no way that I’ll say no."

"I don’t want to get up."

"Why don’t you love me?"

"I don’t want to live in a world without you."

"There’s a fire inside of you."

"I don’t think I can do this anymore."

"Oh good. Just what I needed to hear."

"Tonight as perfect."

"It’s just for the night!"

"I didn’t steal it. I borrowed it. Possibly for a long time."

"It hurts."

"We could go backpacking?"

"What do you mean you want to go home?"

"You don’t know me!"

"I skipped class today."

"I bought you a ring even."

"You bought me flowers?"

"What are you doing home so late?"

"Sorry I’m not what you expected."

"I burned my tongue."

"What a fake smile."

"Did you just laugh at me?"
