It can't be that bad, can it?

[She's lugged around a tank's gun, recoil happens. She plants her feet and takes a little time to aim before firing off a round.]

[ with a grin, ]

Don't toss it!

Re: day 42

[despitethenora]

[Just for that. Lifts it like she's about to lob it.]

Re: day 42

[giraffic]

Gonna shoot your own eye out if that goes off.

Re: day 42

[despitethenora]

Wouldn’t want that.

[She lowers the gun.]

Any other tips?

Re: day 42

[giraffic]

For clickers, double-tap. Hit 'em twice. Gotta get through the plating or whatever on their head first.

Aaaand....don't hesitate if you hear them crying, I guess. Kinda fucked up.

Re: day 42

[despitethenora]

[Nods. But also.]

Never noticed them doing that before. It - would get unsettling.

Re: day 42

[giraffic]

It's runners, usually. The ones that can still - kinda talk and fight it. Or try. Not as far gone as a clicker.

[ clearing her throat. ]

Anyway, good job. We'll test some banana beer and then head out, but if you need to take a shot, you should be fine.

Re: day 42

[despitethenora]

Glad to get full marks.

[She'll try tucking the gun away.]

[ someone who isn't Ellie should probably warn her not to shoot her ass off

oh well ]

I don't know how everyone's just living with them in the hospital like that.

Re: day 42

[despitethenora]

Mostly by not going in the hospital.

. . .Getting ways to treat injuries without needing to find medicinal supplies was important.

Re: day 42

[giraffic]

You guys are lucky. If they get out and bite enough people, this place is fucked. Hell, even one person.

Re: day 42

[despitethenora]

[Thinks about the sporestorm.]

Probably, yeah.

Re: day 42

[giraffic]

Well, I'll handle it. [ cheeky: ] And I'll let you help.

Re: day 42

[despitethenora]

[Heh.]

Glad to be along to see it.

Re: day 42

[giraffic]

Would you be down for patrols? We should probably make sure they don't come back.

Re: day 42

[despitethenora]

[That gets a slow nod. Might be thinking of uh. The strength to stand alone is the strength to make a stand...]

Yeah. A hunter should try to keep things safe for others.

Re: day 42

[giraffic]

Do me a favor and tell that to the dudes in Pittsburgh, yeah?

Re: day 42

[despitethenora]

What were they doing in Pittsburgh?

Re: day 42

[giraffic]

Herding people into the city they overthrew so they could kill them and take their stuff. Assholes tried to run us down with a tank.

Re: day 42

[despitethenora]

Sounds like bandits...would've needed a lot more ammo to take that on.

Re: day 42

[giraffic]

I mean, we took out who we could, but when they've got a tank, it's better to just sneak around as much as you can. We ended up having to leap off a bridge, it was insane.

Re: day 42

[despitethenora]

[Jumping off a bridge does sound like fun, though]

Well. Glad you got through it.

Re: day 42

[giraffic]

And we made the tank blow up later. Double win.

[ oh look, it's the store looming--

why does every building in this town loom like that seriously ]

Re: day 42

[despitethenora]

Would hate to miss it.

Come on.

[She's just heading straight to the door.]
