❝ okay, yes, the rumours are true. ❞ rowan said as she slipped into an empty space at the bar. she'd barely been back from patrol for a few hours, just long enough to be checked for bites, wash herself, and drop her weapons back at the armoury. ❝ i did find an ipod with a charger while i was out. but i'll only trade it for something really good, so do your worst. ❞

this was not good. emmy really hadn’t intended such frivolities when she was told she was to search for more supplies. she hears the clicks approaching, but she’s grown good at predicting their arrival point. by the time the thing reaches her, she’s already taken a shot to it’s head --- she was growing good at this. it didn’t take long to swipe that smug grin off her face, as she hears something come launching at her. in the rush of the moment she assumes it’s a lone wolf attemting to rob her until she sees those EYES, ❝ FUCK ! ! ❞ the runner is obviously trying to trample her fragile body by the time she pulls the gun again, a bullet between the eyes cutting all movement of its limbs before she places another a little more point blank. she can’t help but wince slightly, these ones always look more human. she doesn’t have to time to ponder, these runners move in packs. her steps are loud despite her small frame, so the other would have to have heard her coming, yet she still almost knocks them flat. her fingers curl around the forearm, it doesn’t matter who it is, they have to get out of there ---- and she’s sure they’ll listen seeing as she’s COVERED in blood, her usual sarcasm sparce, ❝ we need to go. ❞ @gvrgias

valeria glanced up from her book when she heard someone walking past, eyes lighting up with the excitement that she had been quashing for the past hour or so. ❝ oh, wait wait !! ❞ she called out as she carefully shut the sun-faded, dog-eared pages of the book she'd read over a dozen times now, so much so that the spine was starting to show signs of wear. ❝ check it out, look, my first pears of the season !! ❞ she reached into the basket of fruit next to her and thought about throwing one, but decided against it. they were too precious, her heart would ache if its gentle flesh became bruised. instead, she sheepishly handed one over, trying to contain her joy.

     “looks like a great day to cause some havoc upon the infected i see over there, don’t you think?” noah stretched her arms, not even bothering to show the other the exact location of the mentioned. -- in her opinion it was quite obvious since she’s been looking in the same direction for a couple of minutes now. “wanna do it the stealthy way or all in?”
