Call to Everyone | Day 34

[1stguardian]

This might be a stupid question, but does anyone know where to get some winter clothes? Maybe some gloves. And a scarf.Between the longest night ever and the psycho, I haven't had much time to really explore the town. But since it's apparently winter now, I'm guessing I better get on that

You find a place, you lemme know. Now I'm a generously proportioned man, but shit is this cold gettin' t'me.

[1stguardian]

You too, huh? Stupid place gives us fruit baskets. You'd think it could spring for something useful. Like a damn sweater.

[regdloading]

I wasn't complaining about that. I was STARVIN'. You got no idea how happy you are to see a basket of fruit when all you could get your hands on for days on end was candy bars, soda, and dry Pop-Tarts.

[Not that Coach was complaining, he loved a good chocolate helicopter.]

[1stguardian]

That's all you'd been eating? Why? Wasn't there anything better where you're from?

[regdloading]

Where I'm from there usually is, but we kinda had a, uh, apocalypse sorta business on our hands.

[1stguardian]

What kind of apocalypse? Was it a war?

[regdloading]

You probably wouldn't believe it.

[1stguardian]

After the things I've seen, I probably would.

[regdloading]

How 'bout zombies?

[1stguardian]

The undead? I'd believe it. I've spent enough time around the living dead.

[regdloading]

You too, huh? [He's taking "living dead" to mean "zombies" too.] Yeah, we got a whole damn APOCALYPSE of 'em back home.

[1stguardian]

How'd that happen? Where are you from?

[regdloading]

Savannah, Georgia. The 'how's are a long damn story.

[1stguardian]

Yeah, I hear you. I've got a few of those too.

[regdloading]

Yeah. First the news is talkin' about some weird flu goin' on. Next thing I know my hometown's gettin' evacuated.

[1stguardian]

So it was the flu that did it? What the hell... No one could find a cure?
