(part 2 of my comment, because it exceeded the darn character limit)

WARLOCK!!!! YAY. Hahah, I love your AU design of him! His hair is so messy; I approve wholeheartedly of this. Just a big bundle of sad and uncomfortable. Aw, Jockey is so cute, trying to cheer him up. You meant well, Jockey! I think your depiction of cured!witches is pretty spot on! It's a strange mix of pulling together what shreds of their humanity remain to, ironically, function well enough around their cured companions, but still have serious issues with survivors. SO IMMEDIATELY UNCOMFORTABLE WITH MOUSY THERE. I was cracking up at his reaction to her and to the comment about shining a flashlight in his eyes XD JUST MARCH AROUND HIM SHOOTING OFF FIREWORKS WHY DON'T YOU. I do want to explore the cured!witch possibilities some more; it's interesting to think about. You brought up a good point in the sketches; I hadn't thought about how a caretaker would interact with them. I suppose they would periodically visit to monitor the witch's behavior and

[zarla]

haha I THOUGHT YOU'D BE HAPPY TO SEE HIM i sort of did him from memory :B WITCHES DON'T NEED BRUSHES WHY
poor mousey knows so little about zombies considering she was a survivor and all, haha
I assume they'd have a watcher on him to make sure he doesn't go witch berzerk on anyone and like try to to stab them to death or anything. :O BUT I DUNNO WHO HIS HELPER WOULD BEEE

[kamesen24]

Probably not easy to get helpers for any cured, let alone a witch. Probably paying a cured to do it, on the unspoken logic that hey if they go crazy and kill each other not our problem - and the actual logic that witches and other infected are never in conflict, so hopefully they'll be totally chill.

Other than that probably not much effort put into selection. You could throw Jordan or Ray at the problem, because hey paid to see if spooky dude is still alive sure / also drastically contrasting personalities are comedy
Jordan might be a better candidate, which is why I recommend Ray.
WHY YOU JUST SIT THERE GOD, BE A MAN
FRIGGIN EMO KID DO YOU EVEN KNOW HOW TO HAVE FUN
lol ray how's your boyfriend
fu hunter
fu jordan
go jump in a river

And further misunderstandings and contrasting, yet equally terrible ways of dealing with emotions/problems
Until somehow bonding and understanding and Ray is a better person for it and helps warlock improve
Surely that's a realistic resolution to this scenario
Also they make out
why not

oh man that's a good point on cured being more likely to be enlisted for it :o LESS LIKELY TO TRIGGER THE KILLING IMPULSE

ALSO OMG RAY BEING HIS HELPER IS HILARIOUS
SO MANY POTENTIAL WACKY HIJINX

[kamesen24]

That is an interesting idea, since witches aren't bugged by the presence of other infected. Oh my gosh I am imagining Ray and Warlock hilarity and it is amusing to me.

"STOP CRYING."
"Beeehhhh..."
"COME ON COME FOR A RUN WITH ME."
"Eeeehhh-heeehhh.."
"Do you EVER stop crying?!"

[zarla]

hahahaha just MAN YOU GUYS I HAVE THE WORST JOB
CMON CRYBABY LET'S GO

tracks him around by the scent of tears and sugar

BUT HOW WOULD WARLOCK FEEL ABOUT RAY'S DOUCHINESS

[kamesen24]

"He's a jerk with a heart of gold," Warlock fumblingly admitted with a weak smile, wiping away tears as he stuffed another lollipop in his mouth.

[kamesen24]

okay the 'also they make out' thing was a joke
I did not seriously expect you to start writing Warlock like he was a yaoi character

UNRELATED THOUGHTS
I kind of wonder if witches are still super deadly after curing, maybe they're still deceptively strong and can break bones when freaking out
And when wondering why I thought maybe infection makes them super metabolize
Which is why they're so skinny because they burn up food in a goddamn hurry
And they're irritable because they're always friggin hungry
And sugar is the best thing ever for them because it's fast energy and also lots of energy, a rare feeling of energy and whee
hypoglycemic zombie sure

WHICH BROUGHT ME TO
a scene in which Warlock and Ray go to lunch and Warlock eats like a thousand burgers and is super embarassed and terror
while ray is just :O dude
Dude

-LowBatteryLife is in one of his scattered moods

[kamesen24]

Haw xD

I think that cured witches would still potentially pose a serious threat. They would be more prone to regressing than the other specials. Having their claws removed would prevent them from cutting anyone to ribbons outright, but their psychotic strength and ability to ignore a high level of damage would make them a pretty big liability in a city shared by survivors and cured alike. Of course, they're about as harmful as a fruit fly 99% of the time. Sitting off by themselves in an abandoned building and sobbing, or maybe walking down the road sniffling to themselves. I think that the survivors at this point would know to steer clear , and especially now that the other infected are cured, there wouldn't be any reason a survivor couldn't easily avoid a witch. But I suppose that accidents do happen

Witches become activists for zombie rights after burger eating becomes an olympic sport. There are protests from traditionalist massive eaters about letting FREAKS and MUTANTS into the games.

[zarla]

Man I wonder what the suicide rate for cured Witches would be, probably pretty high
(or for like, all the cured actually)

NO WONDER FOOD IS SO IMPORTANT TO THE CURED ZOMBIES, THE WITCHES JUST KEEP EATING ALL OF IT

[zarla]

MAN IF THEY HAVE A HYPER METABOLISM THEN MAYBE THEY ALSO PRODUCE A TON OF BODY HEAT
AND THAT'S WHY WITCHES CONSTANTLY WALK AROUND IN RAGS BECAUSE THEY KEEP TEARING OFF THEIR CLOTHES

IT ALL ADDS UP MAN!!

witches are forbidden from working at the local ice cream shoppes

[kamesen24]

IT MAKES SENSE.

NO MILKSHAKES FOR YOU, WARLOCK.

[veloxyll]

1st witch problems!

BUT ITS SO DELICIOUS AND SUGARY GIMEEEEEEEEEEE

[kamesen24]

Warlock insisting on lounging around in underwear all the time because too darn hot
Ray trying very hard not to stare
dem skinny legs
dat bony butt

Just a big sign out from with a sad stick figure and NO WITCHES
and warlock's like maybe I could sneak in by being male

The apocalypse may have happened but BY OUR DEAD GOD WE WILL HAVE ICE CREAM ALL THE SAME

[zarla]

at first tries to tell him to eat a sandwich only for him to eat ALL OF THEM AND YET NOTHING CHANGES

actually wait a minute, Ray is blind as a cured Hunter HE COULDN'T SEE HIM ANYWAY haha

candy stores ravaged by witches, it's tragic
