Nice work! :) I'm worried, though--I hope Merle isn't giving Daryl something that could make him even sicker (I think I'm a hypochondriac that way). The way you wrote Merle's dialogue sounds exactly what I'd imagine him to sound when propositioning Andrea (or another woman)--classless and devoid of all social graces. :p

No Merle is actually being a good big brother for once (I think he does love Daryl he's just too fucked up to know how to show it). And yeah Merle is a bit of bastard, though I'm sure by hitting on his brother's girl he's rationalizing it that if she says yes well then he's just being a good brother and saving Daryl from an 'unfaithful bitch'.
