We Don’t Leave Friends Behind

As a lot of people did; I watched berleezys play through and became fucking OBSESSED with Lee and Clementine like they were my everything for two years. I was really depressed LMAO

Then immediately people call Ben, Nick, Sarah, and somehow even Gabe liabilities and will type paragraph upon paragraph about how useless they are compared to Clementine. I adore Clem, but did they even play the first game? She tried to not be a burden, but in some cases it simply couldn't be helped and Lee had to protect her -- or remember that one time she conversed with a complete stranger on her walkie-talkie for at least a month without informing Lee (in fact she lied to him about it being broken!), and then she ran away with said stranger because she was easily manipulated into believing he knew her parents which resulted in Lee getting bitten and eventually dying, along with Kenny and Ben's deaths as well? Nobody blames Clem for that, she just made a mistake. A BIG one, but to be frank: so what. There's nothing wrong with making mistakes and especially when people should be taking care of each other. We care about Clementine and we're just happy to be reunited even at such great costs. (I'm aware that Kenny doesn't stay dead but we're talking about s1 not s2)
