Declan... He's one of the most selfless people I've ever known. {quietly} He's my best friend. Family.

{Nipping her lip, she beckoned to #Robert, guessing they were close --

[Thea Bauer @LevelUpDead]

@Cooler_Than_PI @_ConOfMan @SoManyArrows -- One of his lab assistants turned, and he didn't know what to do. Early days, you know? {lifting a brow} Nothing builds fast friendships like saving someone from a Walker with scalpels sticking out of their chest.

@Cooler_Than_PI @_ConOfMan @SoManyArrows -- move if he needed her.}

I met Declan about a week after the outbreak started. My brother and I... We were holed up in the research library. High ground, heavy doors and /lots/ of vending machines. Declan, he and Liz came crashing through the doors one night. --

[Thea Bauer @LevelUpDead]

@Cooler_Than_PI @_ConOfMan @SoManyArrows -- if you weren't. I know it's hard... almost impossible.

{Taking a quick glance back at #Robert, taking in the ice scraper, she smothered a smile, deadpan as she met his eyes.}

But it's okay to breathe...

{Nipping her lip, she looked back to #Daryl, poised to --

[Thea Bauer @LevelUpDead]

@Cooler_Than_PI @_ConOfMan @SoManyArrows {murmuring} It's okay. Daryl's got the first can up, they're fueling...

{Gaze locked on #Daryl, braced to run for him at the first sign of the Dead, she tightened her grip on the open door and exhaled.}

It's okay to be scared, Professor. Hell, I'd be worried about you --

[Thea Bauer @LevelUpDead]

@Cooler_Than_PI @SoManyArrows @_ConOfMan -- to spook us.

{Peering through the small window, seeing the way clear, she nodded slowly, getting ready to run or fight, whichever was coming.}

We need to fuel the chopper, then we're heading to the W.H.O. Together.

{Hand on the latch, she looked back at the --

[Thea Bauer @LevelUpDead]

@Cooler_Than_PI @SoManyArrows @_ConOfMan -- But he didn't. He wouldn't. I won't leave him. No matter what. {quietly} We don't do that.

{Leaving the truck running, she pushed to stand, moving to the back door.}

A little claustrophobia's nothing, Professor. You're going to have to work harder if you want --

[Thea Bauer @LevelUpDead]

@Cooler_Than_PI @SoManyArrows @_ConOfMan -- she pulled up beside their bird, and pushed the truck into park.}

When I got hurt? Daryl didn't leave me. {quietly} He could have.

{Turning slightly, her scarred visage coming clear in the truck's low light, she met the Professor's gaze, calm and steady.} --

@Cooler_Than_PI @SoManyArrows @_ConOfMan -- grateful #Donald was an ocean away and couldn't hear her.

Probably.}

He seems to swing between wanting to murder everyone and getting ticked off whenever somebody swears.

{Stifling a chuckle at the thought of @Mortal_Enemies reaction at being labeled @CrimesConcierge best friend, she shook her head, --

[Thea Bauer @LevelUpDead]

@Cooler_Than_PI @SoManyArrows @_ConOfMan We don't do that.

{Shoulders lowering as the headlights beam cut a clear path through the dark to the waiting chopper in the distance, she stepped down slightly on the gas, nose wrinkling at the truck's answering rattle.}

We've all got issues, Professor. One of our --

Hey Professor? Are you a nervous flier?

[Thea Bauer @LevelUpDead]

@SoManyArrows @Cooler_Than_PI @_ConOfMan -- as they rumbled past, relieved by the miles getting shorter between them and the chopper, she grabbed for the wheel to navigate them over the heaving road.} I like snake. Tastes like chicken.

{Turning slightly, she called back to #Robert, raising her voice to be heard --

[Thea Bauer @LevelUpDead]

@SoManyArrows @Cooler_Than_PI @_ConOfMan -- him I had a 'snowball's chance in hell of getting him to eat a moving phlegm sack, so we'd be better off going to England instead.' {lifting a brow} Wouldn't touch a snail. No way he'd eat a snake. Honestly, he had no idea what he'd be missing.

{Eyeing the road marker --

@SoManyArrows @Cooler_Than_PI @_ConOfMan -- country was like was doing /all/ of it. Seeing the history, learning the language, listening to the music, /and/ eating the food. Michael's first french word was 'escargot.'

[Thea Bauer @LevelUpDead]

@SoManyArrows @Cooler_Than_PI @_ConOfMan We never got to France.

{The raw scrape of @NotAllThatDead's absence eased by the warmth in #Daryl's, she gave a quiet smile, carefully serpentining between breaks in the asphalt.}

It was the food. Dad always said part of traveling, experiencing what life in another --

[Thea Bauer @LevelUpDead]

@Cooler_Than_PI @SoManyArrows @_ConOfMan -- /too/ far, we should be able to get back to the bird and into the city. {murmuring} Did he just give her a big wad of stale pudding?
