[ So, here this slaughterhouse truck is on the highway, just chilling and stuff.

At 180 km/h.

Run by chaos and mayhem and zombies, who apparently enjoy their takeaway and have been collecting humans, gasoline cans and quite a bit of (locked) ammo. The camera lands on the glorious decomposing driver, who hasn't missed a day of regular service, and

ITT / IN THIS TRUCK --

[renegare]

[ ...small, seemingly sleeping children.

Tread... lightly... ]

[blueishotter]

[Dude.

He had no idea there were kids in here in this entire mess.

At least they... seem okay...?]

[renegare]

[ Awwww, look at these cute, baby angels...

..........one of whom is clearly infected and inching closer and closer to Rin's leg, oh joy. ]

[demonwhisperer]

[Look, kid, you're cute and all, but really, you do not belong in this world anymore. GET OUT.

Enjoy the bullets to the brain!]

[blueishotter]

Hey-- we probably could've found a way to help him, Yukio!

[Bluh. He hates this and seeing those kids infected and dead and this world sucks.]

[demonwhisperer]

[Shooting children is not high on Yukio's list of favorite things to do, either. Especially when he's a doctor at heart and he wanted to save the kid. But-]

The choice was between him and you, Nii-san. It was already too late for him. Not so for you.

[blueishotter]

I wouldn't've let him bite me! There still could've been a way, though-- like what I did with Katsumi! Except we could've found a way to help him!

[demonwhisperer]

How, Nii-san? Sickness isn't the same as bonding with a damn dinosaur! There's too many of them, and not enough time to save them all! You think I liked doing it? I, at least, don't have my head in the clouds!

[blueishotter]

I-- I could've figured somethin' out! I don't know a whole lot about medicine and stuff, but. There had to be a way! [Bluh.] I know it's not the same as bonding with a dinosaur, I'm not that stupid! [He bites his lip and looks away from Yukio, before replying again.]

I know you didn't like having to do it, but... I wanna find a way to help them.

[demonwhisperer]

[Yukio is silent for a long while, hands gripping the wheel tightly. He sort of wants to cry a little. But still, he would've done the exact same thing again if it meant Rin was safe.

Even if a huge part of him feels like a failure.]

This is why you aren't a doctor, Nii-san.

[blueishotter]

[While Yukio was pausing, he was checking out the other kids-- most of them looked like they were pretty okay, at least. He's already standing beside his brother again, though, when he says something.]

I guess-- the other kids all look okay too, Yukio. Most of them, at least.

INTERLUDE

[scontros]

[ we interrupt with a flying zombie kid head courtesy of squalo

aaand back to your regularly programmed moment of introspection™ ]

[renegare]

[ ...AS LUCK HAS IT, that was Zombie!Elvis-reverend, who is promptly picked up on his wobbly, unrecognizable feet by an INCOMING Freddie, who catapults bouquet of withered pansies Rin's way, before taking his place by him and looking down at the floor, because he's shy. Or because his neck snapped in that pose and he can't lift it back up.

Details. ]

Re: INTERLUDE

[renegare]

[ Meanwhile, Zombie!Elvis totally has this covered and starts MUMBLING A WEDDING CEREMONY. ]

Dzhhhooo... hooo... Frddddrrrick... Mllrrrrn... take... human frrrr wife?

[ Oh look, Freddie is - well, he's uh - Elvis is not convinced ]

Zhhhhat a... yesh?

[ SOMETHING HAPPENS, LIGHTNING STRIKES, etc, Zombie!Elvis is finally in on this. ]

Yesssh he doesh! Do zhhooou.... human...

[ a pause brimming with depth and meaning. it's so philosophical, Elvis' shoulder pops off on the floor. He, er. Got overcome by feelings. He does this for every wedding. ]

The hmmman doesh. Ahhh now pronounshhhh zhou. Man. And. Wife.

1/2; HURTS TO LAUGH, CAN'T BREATHE

[blueishotter]

[SNAPPED OUT OF... INTROSPECTION AND ANGST... BY A FLYING ZOMBIE HEAD. And now he has withered pansies in his hands and. Zombie elvis reverend??

Is this seriously a thing that is happening.]

[blueishotter]

Hey-- shouldn't I get a say in this kinda stuff!??
