TWDG x When food supplies are low
Lee Everett
• Lee is very aware of fairness when food is low
• He doesn’t play favorites openly.
• But with you, it shows in subtle ways:
- splitting portions more evenly
- quietly checking if you’ve eaten
• If you try to give him your share, he notices immediately and doesn’t accept it easily.
• “Eat. That’s not a suggestion.”
• He’d rather go without than let you starve, but he won’t make a show of it.
• If you insist you’re not hungry, he doesn’t believe you. He just waits until you are.
• He watches people when food is handed out:
- who lies
- who hesitates
- who adjusts quietly.
• Sharing food with him feels less like charity and more like mutual responsibility.
• In extreme situations, he might take less himself, but he never lets you go without entirely.
• It’s not only about romance, it’s about making sure you’re still standing tomorrow.
Clementine (aged up)
• Clem treats food like strategy, not comfort.
• Every piece has a purpose.
• When she shares with you, it’s intentional, not impulsive.
• She’ll split evenly at first, watching how you react.
• If you try to give her more, she shuts it down fast.
• She’s not letting you weaken yourself.
• With AJ involved, priorities shift slightly, he comes first, always.
• But that doesn’t mean you’re ignored. Don’t get her wrong she definitely loves you.
• It just means she plans around all of you surviving.
• She notices if you eat slower, hesitate, or try to hide hunger.
• If supplies get dangerously low, she becomes stricter, not colder, just more controlled.
• Sharing with her feels calculated but safe, like someone is making sure no one falls behind.
Luke
• Luke tries to keep things light even when food is scarce.
• He’ll crack jokes while splitting rations to ease tension.
• With you, he shares naturally, no big gestures, just quiet equality.
• If you’re clearly hungrier, he’ll casually slide some of his portions toward you like it’s no big deal.
• “Pretty sure I’m full already.” (He’s not.)
• He notices if you’re struggling but doesn’t make you feel called out.
• If things get really bad, the humor fades, but the care doesn’t.
• He values everyone eating, not just survival but morale.
• Sharing food with him feels normal, even when it’s not.
• That normalcy is intentional, it helps people hold it together.
Nick
• Nick gets tense when food is low, it stresses him out fast.
• He doesn’t always handle sharing gracefully, but he does care.
• If he gives you food, it’s awkward and a little defensive.
• “Just take it, alright? I’m fine.”
• He watches to make sure you actually eat it, though.
• If you try to give it back, he gets frustrated, not because he’s mad, but because he doesn’t know how to respond.
• He struggles between survival instinct and wanting to do the right thing.
• When he does choose you over his own portion, it means more than he says.
• It’s not polished care, but it’s real.
Javier García
• Javier approaches food like a provider, he thinks about the group as a whole.
• He splits things fairly, but adjusts based on need (kids, injured, exhausted).
• With you, he’s attentive but not obvious about it.
• If you’re struggling, he’ll make sure you get enough without drawing attention.
• He doesn’t like seeing you go without, but he also won’t destabilize the group for it.
• If you try to give him your portion, he redirects it instead of accepting it.
• “We’ll both eat. That’s how this works.”
• He balances emotional care with leadership responsibility.
• Sharing food with him feels stable—like someone is keeping things from falling apart.
• Even when supplies are low, he makes it feel manageable.
