A little snippet of Jade and Bug's (my OC) friendship!!
I'm planning on writing about Bug's arrival in town soon enough ;)
Warnings: canon compliant swearing, Jade Herrera is a warning by himself, mentions of attempted murder. lowercase, i think?
“d’you think i’m annoying?”
jade looked up from his little notepad of horrors, brows furrowed in mock thought.
“yes.”
bug whined. the sound echoed through the semi-empty bar, where the older man tried to put something - he still didn’t know what, exactly, yet - together, hair mussed up from his frantic hands.
“i hate it when you do that.” they mumbled, rotating on the stool, that squeaked with the movement, and their own hair was a curly, dry mess.
(‘it woke up like this, and i ain’t got any leave-in cream in this hellhole’, bug grumbled when jade asked what the fuck hit them that morning.)
“when i say the truth?” he asked, genuinely curious. he decided to indulge the younger a little, just to give his mind a break from the situation at hand.
“when you’re so honest.” bug replied, stopping just as they faced jade. “reminds me of myself.”
the man sighed, and sat on the stool closest to them. “please, do continue. sounds like you want to say something, but i can’t promise i’ll pay attention to all of it.”
“just half is fine.”
“you settle for low, huh.”
“can’t expect much from you.”
“fuck off.” jade grumbled, receiving a chuckle from his friend.
“sorry.” they picked at their own fingers, onyx eyes focused on the dusty ground. “it’s just- i’ve always been blunt, tried to be honest most of the time. not to the point of hurting people, but doing my best not to lie, you know? to not lose the trust i’ve gained from the people around me.”
bug sighed and turned back around, picking at the wooden counter instead of their own skin. “look where that got me. got two friends, and they tried to kill me in some kind of shitty ritual.”
“well, that’s not your fault though, is it?”
bug looked up, and found jade’s eyes staring right at them; they moved, uncomfortable, and averted their own eyes.
“guess so.”
“you did your best. if they fucked up, that’s their own shit, not yours.” the older man huffed, and placed the notepad on the counter. “‘sides, you got rid of two fakes and got what, three friends here?”
bug looked up again, glasses a little speckled with unshed tears, as their wet lashes brushed against the lens. “you consider me a friend?”
“i meant kenny, victor and your chicken.”
bug let out a choked laugh at the response, mumbling a ‘bitch’ under their breath.
“jellybean is family.”
“yeah, i consider you my friend. a very annoying, nuts, kinda intelligent friend.”
they smiled, and jade saw their eyes light up - a genuine, happy smile.
“thank you. you’re a very nice friend, even though i’m pretty sure you’’d be part of a mean girl group out of this place.”
“i’d bully you.”
“definitely.”
they sat in comfortable silence, until bug leaned towards the man.
“...can i see your notepad of secrets?”
“you have to level up your friendship stat first.”
“‘kay. i’ll leave you to your dark business, then. shout if you need anything.”
Prepare for Trouble - and make it Double! (Kenny Liu x OC)
Summary: Bug wants to know how the electricity in town works, and Kenny gets dragged into it. After Jade arrives, he brings up flashbacks.
Pairings: One sided!Kenny Liu x Bug Mendes (OC) (Bug is whipped); platonic!Jade Herrera x Bug Mendes (OC).
Warnings: canon typical swearing, electricity tinkering (for God's sake do not reproduce what I wrote, that's dangerous and VERY harmful!!), Bug is a STEM person, Jade has found a partner in crime.
Kenny hesitated on the porch, the wood creaking under his weight as he pushed the door open. The bright light from the hallway spilled onto his sneakers, and the faint scent of something burning tickled his nose.
“Hello?” he called out, stepping inside cautiously.
From the brightly lit hallway, a familiar voice answered. “Hey, Kenny!”
Kenny turned the corner to find Bug sitting there, holding a kitchen knife in one hand and wearing bright rubber gloves that went up to their elbows. Their stance screamed mischief, and Kenny immediately regretted not locking the tools away.
“What are you doing?” Kenny asked, eyes narrowing.
Bug grinned as they gestured at the outlet with the knife. “Just seeing how this shit works.”
Kenny pinched the bridge of his nose. “Don’t.”
“It won’t hurt—”
“It’s not about you! It’ll mess up the electricity!” Kenny snapped.
Bug’s grin widened. “Bet you it won’t.”
Before Kenny could stop them, Bug jammed the knife into the outlet. A loud 'crack!' echoed through the hallway as sparks flew, one landing on Bug’s shirt and igniting a tiny flame. The house plunged into darkness.
The knife clattered to the ground, and Bug stumbled back, slapping frantically at their shirt. Kenny cursed under his breath and lunged forward, batting at the fire until it fizzled out.
Bug looked up, glasses askew and foggy from the commotion. “If you wanted to touch me, you could just ask,” they said, with reddened ears.
Kenny’s face was a mix of exasperation and disbelief. “Next time, do it without the gloves.”
Bug’s eyes followed him as he turned and stormed out of the house, muttering to himself. They smirked to themselves. “Cute.”
The lights flickered back on just then, bathing the hallway in their soft glow. Bug threw their arms up in triumph. “I knew it!”
When they saw the blackened end of the knife, they jolted something down on a tiny notepad. "Outlets are 220v."
A Few Months Later
The kitchen was a disaster zone of wires. Jade crouched on the floor, a pair of pliers in hand. “We gotta pick up the wires. Take them off!"
Across the room, Kenny sat slumped at the table, his head in his hands. Tian-Chen stood beside him, patting his shoulder sympathetically.
“I can’t, Ma,” Kenny groaned, his voice muffled by his palms. “There’s two of them now.”
In the background, Bug and their newfound partner-in-crime, a frazzled-looking individual in similarly ridiculous gloves, leaned over a toaster.
A loud 'zap!' followed by a cheer erupted from the corner.
Tian-Chen sighed. “Strong, Kenny. You survive this.”
“Not like this, Ma." Kenny shook his head. "Not like this.”
"hold still," another daisy goes in. the white had a good contrast with the golden, shiny hair that ben prided himself on.
sky-blue meets obsidian; then, a smile breaks on his perfect face. "how do i look?"
bug smiles back. "like fairy royalty or something. very cottagecore of you."
his smile widens. then, he pats the place in front of him. "come on, your turn."
bug sighs, but entertains their best friend. this field, near victor's secret truck hideout, turned out to be full of little flowers and cute plants. benjamin was the one who spotted the daisies - bug was way too nearsighted to notice the white spots were actually flowers.
"anything i should be mindful of?" he asked, just as his friend sat on the grass, between his spread legs.
"just don't brush out the curls, i think. they usually knot a lot and you might snap the strands."
"noted." he replied, nose scrunched up and eyes laser focused on creating a masterpiece.
"come on, benny." bug whispered, relaxed for the first time in a long while. "make me bonita."

To Victor: "No, I'm- let me go! I'm going with them, LET ME GO! Boyd! Auntie!"
To Julie: "I'm staying with you. And believe me, when I say your mother is alive - I know she is."
To Marielle: "I... know first-aid. Is that enough to help around for a while?"
To Fatima: "My brother is almost 13 years younger than me, and I have 33 cousins on my father's side. Trust me when I say I have experience with pregnancy."
To Kenny: "I should've stayed with them. I should've been stronger. I'm sorry."
To Boyd: "I know how it feels. The guilt- it's too much, too painful, squeezing around my throat and lungs. It's hard to breathe. Even though it feels like it - it's not your fault. It's not anyone's fault. It's this fucking town."
To Tabitha: "It's gotten worse, hasn't it? I can feel it. The pressure is stronger. They're everywhere. It's coming."
To Ben: "You remind me of someone... Yeah, my dog. Her name's Maya. It's a compliment, don't worry."
To Sara: "I can see you're trying to change, and that's a good thing. Sorry I was so hard on you before."
To Randall: "Believe me when I say it's not so bad. Dunno which you prefer, but people usually like scars. They're badass. It's gonna hurt, but you're still alive."
To Kristi: "Can you look after Ken, please? I... don't think he's going to want to see me after this. No, no, he- what do you mean?"
To Tian-Chen: "...my fault? Ha! That's your biggest flaw - you try too hard, fuckass. She would never, ever say that."
Bonus quote: "D'you have a spare room in the station for Jellybean and I? I love having Tabby back, but her and Jim really need to sort out their shit without yelling in the middle of the night."
Summary: A shitty plan gets executed by Kenny. It doesn't go as planned, and Bug learns what their worst fear actually is.
Warnings: Kenny x Bug (OC), mentions of attempted murder, creatures being creatures, cursing, mentions of ptsd, spoilers for s4e7 of from, Jade says suggestive shit, mentions of Acosta shooting people
Thanatophobia: the intense, irrational fear of death or the dying process. Derived from the Greek words thanatos (death) and phobos (fear). People may fear being dead, the physical process of dying, the unknown, or leaving loved ones behind.
The plan sucked ass.
Bug heard the entire thing at exactly 4:57pm, when Ellis tattled about his father’s musings to Fatima. They had checked up on Donna after lunchtime, worried about her wellbeing after the heart attack, and lingered in Colony House to see if anyone else needed help.
(It wasn’t because they had seen the fucking Coraline-like thing that Roger’s corpse had become, and tried to get a feeling of any bad vibes around. Nuh-uh.)
Going back into town was a slow affair; people treated them like a vent channel, and by the time they managed to find Jade in some random spot, half an hour had passed.
“You look like shit,” The older man said, leaning against a lightpost. His shirt - the kitten one he hadn’t changed in approximately four days - was crinkled, his pants absolutely filthy.
The absolute gall of him.
“Are you shitting me?” Bug nearly squeaked, brows furrowed into something akin to an offended frown. “I’m in top shape, while you’re out here cosplaying the human version of a dumpster raccoon.”
“Oh, fuck off,” Jade waved his hand at them, curls windswept. “I found out a lot of things in very few days, I’m allowed to look like I’m struggling.”
Bug’s left eye twitched in annoyance. They reached up, pushing their glasses up the bridge of their nose with their index finger’s knuckle. “Ah, yes. The reincarnation cycle.”
“The fact I have a dead wife who is now reincarnated and alive, also.” He grumbled, looking a bit flustered. “...and I’m a father, apparently.”
“Congratulations!”
“Oh, fuck you.”
Bug’s lips quirked up, eyes crinkling at the corners, and Jade lit up. For a moment, they thought he’d tell them to fuck off again, but his words were worse.
“Oh, I forgot you’ve got lover boy to cover that part.”
Heat crawled up Bug’s cheeks instantly, and even though they knew it was rare for them to actually blush - their skin color was light, but an olive, golden shade that made it hard for the blood to show underneath it -, they knew they were red in the face at that point.
Their relationship with Kenny was recent, enough that not many people knew about it, but not because they were actively hiding it; it was the fact that not much changed between them that made it hard to spot, because they were affectionate all the time.
They held Kenny’s hands, fiddled with his fingers, hung off his shoulders, hid their face in his neck, wrapped their arms around his waist from behind, even shared a bed when they were both in the former Liu house.
Now Kenny had been in Colony house for a few weeks, and Bug slept in the archive room at the sheriff’s station, knowing Boyd needed help at night, sometimes. The older man was like a father figure, and he needed to actually sleep, so they sang him lullabies until he stopped having nightmares.
“Shut the fuck up, oh my God,” Bug whined, pressing their palm to Jade’s face (not slapping, never slapping him) until he stopped talking. “We’re not– That’s not a thing, please stop talking–”
“Oh, you’re on first base–” Came Jade’s muffled response, and Bug nearly choked on their own saliva. “Sweet. You’re both so sweet.”
“I hope you trip on a rock and die, Jade.”
“Yeah, me too.”
Thus, they parted ways.
Bug headed to the station just as Boyd returned to it, bell in hand as everyone in town tucked in for the night. The door was closed behind them, talisman safe in place, and they finally looked up.
Ellis and Kenny were inside, too, probably to be some kind of backup to Boyd; Bug’s eyes widened, entire body perking up when they saw their boyfriend close.
Kenny in the sheriff station after dark meant he’d sleep over, which meant they’d have time to actually talk without having to part ways, and the way he smiled back meant that Bug’s mouth had lost a fight against their brain and smiled really fucking wide without noticing.
“Hey,” He said, a bit breathless, and it took one (1) word for Bug to wrap their arms around his neck.
It was a subtle change, really. Before, Bug wrapped their arms around Kenny’s midriff, burying their face in his shoulder and calling it a day; friendly embrace, totally platonic, even if Bug had already confessed their undying love to Kenny at least twenty-three times.
Now, their arms wound around his neck, and his hands settled either on their hips or waist. His nose buried in their black curls, messy and smelling like the olive oil they’d taken to using after washing their hair. He relaxed visibly, and Ellis glanced at them exactly once, smiling to himself.
“Missed you,” Kenny whispered in their ear, thumbs caressing their hips through their flannel. “Something interesting happen’ today?”
Bug inhaled softly, shaking their head no. Their nose brushed the junction of his neck and shoulder, taking in the scent of a day of hard work - clean sweat, dust, something faintly woodsy. Home, their brain supplied. No matter what kinda shit was thrown in their face, they were safe with him.
“Nah. Donna feels better, and that’s good, Fatima is looking after her.” They said softly, fingers weaving in his hair. “Got creeped out at Roger’s corpse, though you already know I fucking hate dolls. I just hope he was already gone when that happened.”
Knowing that he could’ve been alive while a creepy, giant doll sewed oversized buttons over his eyes and sewed his mouth shut made Bug’s heart give a painful squeeze. They hated how cruel this entire place was.
“Jade told me to fuck off twice, but that’s standard.” They snickered, pulling back just to look into Kenny’s eyes. “You? Anyone gave you shit today? Acosta has been weirdly quiet these last few days.”
“She’s in basement duty,” Boyd announced, clearly listening in. They were all in the same room, after all. “Doesn’t have time to do anything but catalogue shit.”
“No time to shoot people,” Bug grumbled, fingers skimming Kenny’s temples, and settling on his cheeks, cupping them. “Sophia got her weird ass near you again?”
Kenny’s lips twitched, and Ellis snickered, loudly. When Bug turned their head towards him, looking a bit disgruntled, Kenny cupped their cheeks as well, and turned them back towards his own face.
“First of all, Sophia is not weird,”
“She is weird,” Ellis chirped, and Boyd gave him a disapproving look. “What? She is. She’s a weird kid, that’s standard teen behavior.”
“She’s grieving,” His father retorted, peeping through the blinds.
“And she’s weird. Not mutually exclusive.” Bug shot back, looking up at their boyfriend. “So?”
“Second of all, she’s staying with Sara now. Haven’t seen her in a while.” Kenny replied, still smiling. “Still jealous?”
They scoffed, cheeks still flushed. “Pfft. I’m worried she’s going to wander out at night again, not– not jealous.”
Ellis hummed, utterly disbelieving. He had joined his father at the window now, and Kenny took advantage of their little private moment to squish Bug’s cheeks together, making their lips pucker. His own lips pressed to theirs for a moment, brief and soft, pulling back after a handful of seconds.
It was like this every single time they had even a crumb of privacy; someone turned their head for seven seconds, and Bug pressed a kiss to Kenny’s cheek or lips, and vice-versa. Sometimes, it was the back of their hand, other times Bug brushed his hair back, off his forehead.
Kenny had less and less time for himself these days, but when he found himself with nothing to do, he’d find Bug and drag them into the closest place with a door and a lock, just to bury his face in their neck and sneak a few kisses. He’d complain a bit, get his dose of serotonin, and return to deputy duties with a sigh.
“I’m going to feed Jellybean right now,” They said softly, pressing another kiss to their boyfriend’s lips. “Come with me?”
Kenny’s eyes softened. The chicken was safe in the enclosure Bug had built for her in the archive room, covered with old papers they changed daily so it wouldn’t stay dirty or stink.
“Gonna stay here with them, it’s almost time.” He replied, letting go of them with a kiss pressed to their temple. “Go on, I’ll see Jellybean soon.”
Bug hummed softly, prancing away to the archive room - now their room, complete with an old bed and mattress, a dresser in front of it, and on the opposite side of the room (that wasn’t big, to begin with), a spacious enclosure for Jellybean.
It was made out of iron grids they bolted to the wall, with the floor covered in shredded newspaper over an old blanket, and a few wooden poles. The food and water bowls were on top of the newspaper, in a corner, and the chicken herself was perched on the tallest pole.
“There you are, precious.” Bug chirped, pulling out a bag of chicken feed from under their bed - One of the fours sacks they had brought with them in the car, when they first arrived in town, retrieved the morning after. “Time to eat, yeah?”
They had just finished pouring Jellybean’s food in the bowl when Boyd and Kenny started shouting in the other room. Ellis’s voice rose as well, unintelligible, and Bug rushed out of their room, blinking up at the three men.
“–hat if your leg gives out? Huh?” Kenny asked, gesturing at Boyd. “Like last time? What if you can’t get back up this time?”
“Listen to me very carefully. Both of you, listen!” Boyd shouted back, aggravated. “I’m not sending anyone out there and risk their life while I sit in here like a– fucking, stop it! Goddamn it, stop it!”
Ellis and Kenny watched as the sheriff shook and glared at his hand, trying to make it stop shaking by sheer willforce. It didn’t work.
Ellis broke the silence. “Dad, please?”
It took a moment, but Boyd agreed to whatever it was they had been discussing so passionately. Bug stood behind the duo, fingers curling on the hem of their flannel, booted feet shuffling on the floor.
Just what is going on?
They didn’t even have to ask, because Ellis turned around, and spoke on everyone’s behalf. “Dad isn’t in top shape to– to do these things, so Kenny said he’d do it.”
It seemed as if ice substituted the blood in Bug’s veins. One sentence, and Kenny was turning around to look at them with his pretty eyes, and their heart damn nearly fucking stopped beating right then and there.
“The sucky plan?” They breathed out, fingers trembling. “Going out and– and stabbing one of them and hoping it dies?”
Boyd pursed his lips, opening his mouth to retort something like I said I’m the one who has to do it but these damn stubborn kids won’t let me, but his deputy was faster.
“I’m faster, and I know every emergency route and place to hide.” He said, looking down at his partner. “It’s the best option we’ve got.”
“I’m going with you, then,” They blurted out, brows furrowing. “I can distract them–”
“Absolutely not.” Kenny replied, adamant. “We’re not risking you–”
“And we’re risking you?!” They exclaimed, stepping towards the trio. “So we’re just– you’ll just walk out there without anyone–”
“You’re going to be a distraction.” He concluded, fingers curling on Bug’s shoulders. “I’m going to be out there, and if you’re putting yourself as a distraction for them, I’m going to worry about you and then I’m going to be distracted myself.”
Bug swallowed thickly, fingers clutching the hem of their flannel so tightly, it started to crease.
“I can use a knife,” They whispered, weakly.
“You know that won’t do anything.”
“I can go myself–”
“Bug, stop.” Boyd said, looking back at the engineer. “Kenny is capable of doing it. Chances of failing are less if he’s alone.”
The deputy sighed, thumb brushing his partner’s cheek slowly, ever so softly. Their flight instinct had been gone since the first day in town, and now the urge to fight was all they had left - self-preservation gone. They didn’t care if they died, as long as everyone else was safe.
“I’ll be okay,” He whispered, nose brushing theirs. “I promise.”
It took twenty-seven minutes for Ellis to deem outside perfect for Kenny to go. Enough creatures scattered out, creepy atmosphere at a peak. Yes, perfect moment for someone to go out and attempt to stab one.
“I really don't think it's a good idea.” Bug mumbled to Ellis, fingers curled on the desk, still shaking. “It wasn't a good idea with your dad, it's not a good one with Kenny. Not a good idea in general.”
“I know,” Ellis whispered, wrapping his arm around their shoulders. Kenny looked at them one last time, nodded his head, and grabbed the spear. “But it's the only one we've got.”
“Be careful,” Bug mouthed, swallowing thickly. “I love you.”
The deputy's lips quirked up, a soft smile breaking through as he mouthed back. “I love you, too.”
And then, he was gone out the door, closing it behind himself.
Boyd was practically glued to the window, with Bug and Ellis beside him, watching as the creatures turned and smiled at Kenny.
He was fast, no one could deny that; being involved in sports his entire life, he was probably the most fit person in town, with the exception of Jeor, the kind bear who was sleeping in Colony House this particular night.
The spear went through the milkman's chest, and for a moment, it seemed like it'd work.
“He got it,” Bug breathed out, fingers still curled on the desk, Ellis still holding them close. “He did it–”
And then, the creature laughed. Broke the spear like it was a toothpick, and Kenny ran.
“Get outta there!” Boyd yelled, his own fingers curling on the windowsill with enough strength to make it creak under his grip.
Bug's heart was beating way too fast now, eyes following their boyfriend like a bullet. The houses. The bar. The diner. Everywhere he went, there was a creature already there, like they knew he was going to try and head inside.
“Dad, they're blocking the doors!” Ellis shouted, and Bug finally snapped, struggling against his hold.
Their brain turned off every single thought aside from Kenny is in danger.
“He’s outside, no, no, he is–” They shouted, pulling away from Ellis's hands. “They’re blocking the doors, Boyd, let me out–!”
The sheriff turned around, eyes wide as Bug shook and struggled against his son's tight embrace, the younger man's own eyes wide.
They knew how strong Bug naturally was, and if they got enough adrenaline in their body…
Boyd disappeared into his own room, while Ellis held the wild engineer in his arms; their eyes were trained outside the window, blood turning ice cold as the smiling creature followed Kenny into the bus.
“He's fucking inside–!” They yelled, eyes filling with tears. “No, no, he's going to die, he can't die, not him!”
The sheriff came back with a coil of rope in hands, and Ellis met his eyes over Bug's head.
“Help me tie them up.” Boyd said, and Bug sobbed in Ellis's hold.
“Please,” They were crying by now, tears streaming down their cheeks, fingers clutching at nothing. “I need–”
A chair was pushed forward, and Ellis pushed them down on it, still struggling to keep them still as his father wound the rope around Bug's midriff, chest and arms.
By the time they were completely tied off, a shriek was heard. Their eyes were misty, the lenses of their glasses sprinkled and greasy with tears, and they couldn't see the window anymore.
“He can't die,” They whispered, over and over again. “Not him, please, not him,”
Boyd and Ellis were glued to the window now, watching as Kenny pushed the creature off the bus’s roof, slipped back inside the vehicle, and successfully closed the door and the emergency exit.
Silence reigned for a minute.
“He did it,” Ellis breathed out, pressing the heels of his hands onto his eyes. “God, he did it.”
When the duo turned around, Bug was staring up at them with wide, teary eyes, and such a heartbroken expression, Boyd nearly gave in to the urge to untie them.
“He's safe. He got into the bus,” The older man said, sliding onto a chair himself. “He's safe, kid.”
They struggled against the ropes again, fingers twitching, chest pushing against the bindings, but to no avail; marine standard knots, only Boyd would be able to untie it.
“Let me– see him, please, please–”
“Can't risk you trying to go out and sprint towards the bus,” He replied, crossing his arms. “Sorry.”
Bug cursed lowly, still moving. Ellis sat down on the floor near the door, sighing in relief, and tried not to look towards his friend.
Outside, the creatures mocked and whispered.
“Come keep your boyfriend safe, little Bug.”
“I bet he's scared, being all alone in that big bus.”
“What if he accidentally opens a window?”
“Come play, Buggy.”
For the first time, Bug felt compelled to go outside.
When the sun rose, the station's door opened, and a couple of men would find Boyd, Ellis and Bug asleep.
Their engineer was still tied up to the chair, tears dried on their cheeks and chin, glasses askew on their face.
For the first time since arriving in town, Jeor Olbrecht rose his voice.
“What the fuck?”
Bug woke up then, blearily staring up at the man who had become their father figure in this hellhole.
“...can you untie me, please?”
Randall Kirkland watched as his boyfriend undid the knots by ripping them apart, while Boyd sighed, rubbing his temples. The sheriff could hear a headache coming.
Three minutes later, when Bug finally stumbled outside, frazzled and completely fucking exhausted, Kenny stepped out of the bus. Their eyes met, and the way the engineer barreled into his embrace almost knocked the deputy backwards.
“Don't ever do that again,” They whispered, voice shaky. “That's not– ever. You're never doing that again.”
“I won't.” Kenny whispered back, nose buried in their curls. “I promise.”
By the treeline, someone watched the display, and smirked to themselves.
“The smart little Bug does have a weakness, after all.” Sophia grinned, adjusting her glasses. “They're so much fun to play with. Always so very suspicious of the right ones.”
A leaf rustled beside her. Wind picked up, and the feeling of something moving through the open field towards town was felt by exactly one person.
Bug's eyes snapped open.
“Feel it, Buggy.” Sophia sung to herself, turning around. “This is the most fun part, after all.”
To Jade: "Kenny said I'm spending way too much time with you." (...) "No, no, it's just-- I started to theorize about things that shouldn't be theorized about."
To Donna: "...did you just say giant dolls?"
To Julie: "You're a kid. Don't try to solve something you shouldn't be responsible for."
To Boyd: "He's outside, no, no, he is-- they're blocking the doors, Boyd, let me out--!"
To Tabitha: "I know you're grieving, and I know it's hard to be here and have everything happen at once, but you're being way too harsh on Victor. It's his way of trying to help, even if it's weird and a bit unsettling."
To Ben: "No, you're not going to the caves. No, you're not throwing Molotov cocktails down the entrance and hoping for the best, Benny, just settle down."
To Kristi: "We're here. We're here, I'm so sorry."
To Sophia: "Your father was a pastor?" (...) "Yeah, I'm ministers' child. Plural. Mom and dad, so I know my bible lore."
To Randall: "No, I'm just saying that, look. I wear glasses. I've worn the same glasses for nearly two years in this place. What are the odds of her going into the storage room and finding a pair of glasses with the same prescription as her old ones?!"
To Sara: "Be careful. I'm just saying, please be careful."
To Kenny: "I am not-- I am not jealous. I'm just saying it's weird that we never got to interact with her father, to know anything," (...) "She's just weird, okay? And not in the way I'm weird or Victor is weird, she's negative weird!"
Bonus quote: "No, Jellybean is not part of the barn animals. She's mine. No, she does not lay eggs, and, don't touch her. You're not allowed within ten feet of my chicken."
