different timelines are a thing now trust me i hate it as much as anyone it's fucking batshit but here we are
she knows and i don't know it's weird because we're NOT for her and i don't know how to handle that and she's not super talkative so we're kinda in a weird place
[This is his life now. This is what he gets for living with teenagers.]
awwww that's adorable a FRIEND friend or a friend friend?
i wish i never asked ain't there anything in this place that AIN'T a thing
so what everything is exactly the same but you two ain't canoodlin
you mean she ain't interested man that's rough cool that you ain't expecting anything of her though look i don't know man i ain't good about this kind of stuff
man ain't that a punch in the dick for the love life it's cool you'll work it out you know and it don't mean you can't still be friends i'd rather keep a friend
[ There's a long, long pause. Daryl is mentally kicking himself right now. ]
carol her name's carol she's cool nice lady been through a lot
[ No one said he's good at talking about people, okay. ]
pretty much yeah but i agree i'd rather have her as a friend than her not be around at all her not being around has been pretty much the worst
sorry to hear that it always sucks when you don't see the people who matter especially the nice ones and she's gotta be SUPER nice if you're saying it is she a badass?
yeah but i get it though like why she left end of the world changes everyone in some ways the change was good for her but i know she went through a lot of messed up stuff too she just didn't want to be around it no more
she's pretty nice yeah makes a mean ass casserole too it's ridiculous hell yeah she is maybe one of the best fighters we got
i can understand that sometimes you just have enough of it and you need to make a break you never know though! she might come back when she's ready family is still family, even in the end times probably more so
shit gotta love them cooks i can basically cook a rabbit on a spit and that's it i don't think it counts as actual cooking i would have loved to be able to meet her
OH yeah that explains it moms are really good at the moming even if it's not with an actual child
his name is Omar he cooks everything he gets really weird about it if we interfere but he's literally the reason none of us starved to death all hail God-King Omar
that and the end of the world right when shit first hit the fan carol was in this group me and my brother joined known her ever since just four of us left from that big group
[ Now that Glenn's... yeah. ]
huh nah that's legit at least there's still need for chefs at the end of the world
yeah i get that that's definitely a thing there used to be like shit thirty-six? seven? a LOT of us anyway there's six of us now eight if you include clem and aj because they're still pretty new
there sure is and tbf he makes a kickass stew we got like the greenhouse clear now? so we will be able to grow veg and herbs and shit he's so excited about that
we tried to make ourselves as invisible as possible we didn't trust anyone after the adults bailed but clem and aj taught us it's important to let new people in too? before all the other-world kidnapping the last thing I was doing was going to a caravan we'd spotted just outside our borders see if they were good people and wanted to trade maybe? set up something else for ourselves than just existing
and we're miles from anything anyway way out in the woods there was the train station but that got cleared out so that's where we're at
nah i get that wouldn't trust no adult either if that were me see we worked that out too with our group rick came up with the questions that we would ask people if they seemed alright helped kinda vet people y'know
that's pretty ideal though being hidden away from everyone i mean sure you're isolated but if you can feed yourselves then maybe it's better that way
we will don't really have to worry about anything school is a pretty solid building too still got beds and fireplaces and a kitchen and shit yay for us all being deemed monsters to society and needed to be sent to a school for nutjob kids i guess
that's a really cool way of looking at it fuck the adults who told us we weren't good enough to exist in society we made out OWN society and where are those douchebags? well probably dead! fuck 'em

she might come back
when she's ready
family is still family, even in the end times
probably more so
shit gotta love them cooks
i can basically cook a rabbit on a spit and that's it
i don't think it counts as actual cooking
i would have loved to be able to meet her
no subject
Date: 2020-12-05 05:24 pm (UTC)i miss having her around
dunno when that'll be though
[ Or if Daryl will ever get the chance, considering what's going down back home right now. ]
she's a mom
so she's just really good at that stuff i guess
[ A beat. ]
wait that's it that's all you know
rabbit on a spit

all hail God-King Omar
no subject
Date: 2020-12-10 08:41 pm (UTC)never mind she's like

but i mean
not starving is always cool
no subject
Date: 2020-12-11 01:04 am (UTC)but that's adorable
i like that
friends being gentle shits is par of the course
like strongest of friendships are formed on that
not starving is cool
but he likes to make good food
like really good food
he says "you can eat or you can eat right"
it's like his mantra
no subject
Date: 2020-12-15 09:32 pm (UTC)when shit first hit the fan
carol was in this group me and my brother joined
known her ever since
just four of us left from that big group
[ Now that Glenn's... yeah. ]
huh
nah that's legit
at least there's still need for chefs at the end of the world
no subject
Date: 2020-12-17 10:28 pm (UTC)that's definitely a thing
there used to be like
shit
thirty-six? seven?
a LOT of us anyway
there's six of us now
eight if you include clem and aj because they're still pretty new
there sure is
and tbf he makes a kickass stew
we got like the greenhouse clear now?
so we will be able to grow veg and herbs and shit
he's so excited about that
no subject
Date: 2020-12-23 11:30 pm (UTC)that's rough
and it was all y'all kids too
yeah we had people join our group too
people come and go over the years
[ even if it's only been maybe two years or so. sure is gonna be a bummer when he's seven and a half years in the future. ]
growing shit's important
so that's fair
can't imagine the shit that's left over in stores are gonna be all that great now
no subject
Date: 2020-12-25 08:01 pm (UTC)we didn't trust anyone after the adults bailed
but clem and aj taught us it's important to let new people in too?
before all the other-world kidnapping
the last thing I was doing was going to a caravan we'd spotted just outside our borders
see if they were good people and wanted to trade maybe?
set up something else for ourselves than just existing
and we're miles from anything anyway
way out in the woods
there was the train station but that got cleared out
so that's where we're at
no subject
Date: 2021-01-04 12:27 am (UTC)wouldn't trust no adult either if that were me
see we worked that out too with our group
rick came up with the questions that we would ask people if they seemed alright
helped kinda vet people y'know
that's pretty ideal though
being hidden away from everyone
i mean sure you're isolated
but if you can feed yourselves then maybe it's better that way
no subject
Date: 2021-01-04 09:21 pm (UTC)so those three you gave me
i guess that makes sense
weed out the complete psychos at least
we've sure prefered it that way
we got a forest
we got a river
and a functioning greenhouse now
i think we'll be okay
no subject
Date: 2021-01-09 01:11 am (UTC)it gives a good feel for people
hell
that's a pretty sweet set up there
for real
yeah you'll be just fine
no subject
Date: 2021-01-09 04:47 pm (UTC)i like it
we will
don't really have to worry about anything
school is a pretty solid building too
still got beds and fireplaces and a kitchen and shit
yay for us all being deemed monsters to society
and needed to be sent to a school for nutjob kids i guess
no subject
Date: 2021-01-09 09:29 pm (UTC)y'all got yourselves set
not many people got a kind of deal like that
look at it this way
y'all the ones laughing now
no subject
Date: 2021-01-10 06:09 pm (UTC)fuck the adults who told us we weren't good enough to exist in society
we made out OWN society
and where are those douchebags?
well probably dead!
fuck 'em
feels good to wrap!
Date: 2021-01-14 12:53 am (UTC)[ This is definitely a flipping off moment. Hey, nice. ]
