[Michonne's on the beach, and she's holding the camera out far enough on a wide shot that others can see.]

So. Dining room is now on the beach. Ambiance, I guess.

Comments

[voiceinthedark]

Yeah. It's definitely weird. Usually events and weirdness are telegraphed, and this hadn't been. It;s worrying.

[thesamurai]

Guess the best we can do is try to be prepared. Keep weapons on us if we can.

[voiceinthedark]

[Sam sighs.]

Just like home.

[thesamurai]

Hey, at least we won't go soft while we're here. Plus side, right?

[voiceinthedark]

I dunno. I'd kind of like to live in a place where I could go soft. Not have to worry about whether I'm going to live through each day.

[thesamurai]

Yeah. Me too. Long as I never had to leave again.

[voiceinthedark]

Yeah. As long as I knew that. Even then... I don't think I'd be able to relax. Not for a long time at least.

[thesamurai]

[She knows that feeling, for sure.]

I'm with you on that one. But I guess for now, stressing about this won't change anything. Just try to prepare for the worst case scenario without dwelling on it.

[ha ha ha ha.]

[voiceinthedark]

[Sam slowly turns the camera around so that Michonne can see the storage area of his room, with all of the bottled water, tinned food and med kits you could ever want.]

Never want to be caught out again.

[thesamurai]

You look like me.

[She gets a case of water a week from the closet that she never opens, just in case, and has more boxed and canned food than she thought she'd ever need. Sam definitely has her beat in med supplies though.]

Get your toilet paper, too.

[voiceinthedark]

We know what it's like. I'm pretty sure Simon and Maxine are doing the same. Got caches around the place too.

[Paranoid, absolutely. But justifiably so.]

Oooh good point. Always need more of that.

[thesamurai]

We should make a club. Some kind of club that meets at the bar. Don't know what we'd do, just feels like we should all still together.

[voiceinthedark]

I think sitting around and drinking and just... enjoying not being constantly in danger of being eaten is a pretty good theme for a club.

We could play games.

[thesamurai]

Then the theme's decided. We can work on games later. But I wouldn't say no to darts. Haven't done that in a long time. Or play a game of pool.

[voiceinthedark]

Settlers of Catan. We should play that.

We could do all of it.

You should definitely challenge Simon to darts. Make sure there's a bet on it.

[thesamurai]

What the hell is 'Settlers of Catan?'

[She's not opposed, she just has no idea what two of those words mean.]

[voiceinthedark]

It's a board game. You're setting up a settlement. Acquiring resources and building up your town and stuff.

[thesamurai]

Oh, well hell, we've all got experience in different ways, right? Should be a good game for people to play who've been to the end of the world.

[She's being serious about playing, even giving Sam a lopsided smile.]

[voiceinthedark]

Yep! It went down pretty well at Abel, even when we lost a bunch of the playing pieces. I think you'd enjoy it.

[He grins back at her. This is something they should definitely set up.]

[thesamurai]

Once the mansion figures itself out again, let's figure this out. I'm curious now about this game.

[voiceinthedark]

We could be waiting forever if we're waiting for that. But yeah, we'll organise something. Meet up in the bar. I'll send a message out.

[thesamurai]

Sounds good. Until then, watch out for sand in your food if you come out here to eat.

[voiceinthedark]

Yeah, I'll bear that in mind and maybe just eat in my room instead.
