I know I've said it in the other chapters, but I like how you include so many everyday, mundane detail in this. The stuff on the floor in Estelle's apartment, the little conflicts between everyone, the sense of day-to-day survival, dealing with the implications of "killing" someone you used to know... It keeps something that's gory and probably a widespread catastrophe at this point very grounded in the characters. (Though I guess if they still have running water and electricity, things can't have gotten TOO out of hand yet.)

“For God's sake, Matt!” Mohinder chided from a few steps back. “We don't know how they operate yet. If you alert one, maybe others will follow suit.”

MOHINDER: "I mean really, Matt, have you even READ the Zombie Survival Guide?"

'Partner unfocused,” Mohinder thought tersely, narrowing his eyes at Matt. 'Will surely lead to death.'

I laughed. X) Though if it's foreshadowing, I'm sure I'll feel bad about it later. What can I say, I get a kick out of bitchy!Mohinder. I like him being proactive, risk-taking, and practical about things, too, and I'm seeing some of that here.

Gah, MOLLY. I went from feeling happy for her with hearing about Matt talking about her to feeling SO BAD for her when she had to watch her teacher's last few minutes alive.

Spiffy chapter. Will there be MOAR BOB eventually? ;)

Poor Molly always gets beat up in this fic. I'm so terrible! I felt like she needed a little something to pick up her spirits, considering what has happened to her. I think hearing those words can keep her going for a while.

Spiffy chapter. Will there be MOAR BOB eventually? ;)

Thanks! And of course! Maybe not next chapters (and maybe not directly) but we will see MOAR BOB here and there.

Thanks again for taking the time to comment. It's encouraging!
