Wichita's feelings on not having Little Rock here with her.

[zombiefree]

AHHH IT'S THE WORST THING. She hangs out around the carousel for a least a little while each day hoping she'll just show up there like she did. Having Little Rock gone has seriously fucked her up, like not sleeping and barely eating right kind of thing, she's not used to not having her around. According to interviews with the writers of the movie, Wichita and Little Rock were on the run/conning together long before Zombieland, so I don't think she really even knows what to do with herself most of the time. I think Wichita makes/made most of her decisions in life with her sister in mind, likely over her own wishes, so now she's just feeling really lost, and there's no way to really fix it. She'll pretend to get used to it and pretend she's not worried, but most of the time it's all she thinks about

...how easily does she find zombie innard/bit stains come off her clothing?

[zombiefree]

Ugh, well it's rare she'd manage to get any of it on her, but blood never comes out, not out of cotton anyway. Nor denim. She doesn't usually have time to wash out her clothes a bunch, so if she gets guts on them she just throws them out as soon as they find a closet or clothing store to raid. It's not worth trying to wash it off, failing, and then somehow getting the disease that way. Since it transfers through bodily fluids and all. Her leather jacket is the one thing she'll never get rid of, and she's straight up hosed it down and let it air dry before just so she wouldn't need to ditch it.

Though usually she never lets zombies get close enough to let them ..guts or barf on her. It's like not letting sick dudes sneeze on you, you effing avoid it like crazy. Distance is kinda key with these things, they run fast, and you have to be faster. So chances are if you're covered in guts, you've probably managed to catch the virus too. Bummer.

How does she feel about not having to constantly be on her guard against the roaming undead here in the City?

It's really bizarre actually! Wichita hasn't been around this many people, actual healthy people, in a little over two months. Which doesn't seem like a lot of time, but it's enough to make her kinda antsy when she's in the middle of a crowded area. I feel like she's been a little out-skirty since she arrived here because of it. Mostly just talking to people over the comm instead of in person. And oddly enough, I think she's probably more comfortable in the shadier parts of the city as of right now, purely because it makes her paranoia feel a little justified, hahaha. Like she doesn't have to apologize to anyone for being defensive down there.

I think after a while she'll get over it though, learn to enjoy it. Learn to enjoy hamburgers again! Without the fear of it being all mad-cow-ified and deadly.

She still kinda wants a gun though, not having a gun on her just makes her feel really disconnected now. But then I think she had a gun long before the zombie virus invaded, but that's a whole other thing.

Ahh, poor thing :c Hopefully she can enjoy herself soon. Girl needs a hug or something. But all that makes a lot of sense. And I can totally see her having a gun pre-zombies.
