Shouldn't be spawning more, unless there's another nest of them somewhere. [that might be humor or it might just be pessimism]

Now's just cutting the rest down. Have fun.

Twenty-one dead at last count. [he's so matter-of-fact you'd think he was talking about Heaven Smiles instead of cityfolk] Bet that's not the worst this place's seen, but I haven't been here long enough to tell.

How long have you been here, anyway?

Heard of Walter. Not the details, though.

Five months. Give or take a week.

Gotta give you those later. Now that is a bitch of a story.
