shipwrecking: (ok no)

beez in the trap

[time is ruthless when unchecked, gnawing at sore ankles and palms tough as leather, drawing blood that draws walkers in turn. Murasa stopped keeping track after the day she watched her group get torn apart amidst gunfire and screams. only day and night exist now, monday and tuesday and everything after that gone. all gone, just like the world and society and everything she misses and wishes she could forget about.

finding Madoka shocked her out of her numb stupor (and in a sense, brought her back from the dead). they're not alone anymore- alone, in this world of death even after death, but not on their own. they've had too many close calls but somehow, by some random miracle, they're alive and unharmed.

they can't stay in one place too long. the walkers might move slower than the living, but they still move nonetheless. they made it out of the city and out into the countryside where they're less likely to be ambushed by a mob around any corner. there's a farmhouse visible just about half a mile away. the barn beside it could provide extra cover until they rest and gather more supplies as well.

or it could hold a crowd of walkers inside.

Murasa glances at Madoka. they've been walking for hours in the blistering sun and their water supply is nearly depleted. talking would only dry their throats so they haven't exchanged any words for a while now.]

[ not since the outbreak. she understands. ]

I don't imagine so.

How difficult would you like the penalty to be?
rosebow: (lights will go out)

Of course not. I think I've had enough of those too.

... I'll go easy on you, then.
rosebow: (leave our footprints on earth)

If you break the promise, you have to cook me something delicious as an apology.
rosebow: (stars in our eyes)

It can't be any worse than canned things, right?

[ speaking of, scrounging up a tin of peaches. like magic. ]

What do you miss the most? The food we used to have...

[ food from before the outbreak, from when food was plenty. ]
rosebow: (run through everything you are)

[ ur welcome. and it does sound good... well, she was used to being hungry too. ]

Pizzas were such a long time ago...

Ah, I don't think I've ever had fish curry, though. It was always chicken or beef.
rosebow: (you want to fight me)

When, huh?

[ but it's a lot more hopeful than 'if'. she closes her eyes briefly. ]

Do you know how to fish? If we ever find a river, or even walk far enough to the sea...
rosebow: (your terminal high)

Where in Europe? Maybe if we find a boat one day...

[ it wouldn't happen, and they both know it. but it wasn't humoring Murasa if it was also humoring herself. walkers couldn't swim. it was a nice idea, a nice dream. ]
