The snow below his feet crunched with each step James took. Every time he breathed, his breath was visible due to the low temperature. He stood still and folded his arms, looking up at the bitter snow as it fell slowly towards the ground. “Can’t say I enjoy the cold too much. But I think to keep things more cheerful around here we should build a snowman.”

I hate cold. Nothing worse than having to wear layers upon layers of clothes cuz of all this freezy weather! That sounds like a nice way to pass some time tho. *laughs* Don’t think we should be playing around here but I’m loving the snowman idea. And, hey, is anything people can practice shooting at it later on if they wanna - benefits for all!

After a long shift at the wall, Mila was made to go and rest before doing anything else - she knew she was tired beyond point but sleeping in such situation almost felt impossible. Still, with a huge headache and her scar on the left side pulsating due to it she somehow managed to fall asleep as soon as she has reached her bed for the time being. Her sleep wasn’t easy - she kept on waking up every few moments, twirling around so much that sheets ended up wrapped up around her waist - until she felt someone shake her by the leg. “What?”she asked in a sleepy voice. “It’s not my shift already, is it?”

Sorry, no no. I didn’t mean to wake you up you were tossing and turning thouht you might not be asleep at all... *she smiles appoligeticaly* You didn’t seem like you’ve been eating much past day, they’re serving some food now down at cafeteria, I’ve brought you some?

One perk of being trapped in a stupid hospital, surrounded by crooks and locked in with scared people — they all were looking for those few minutes, hours of distraction and there were enough empty rooms left. Not that Nik was particularly concerned about privacy. He just pulled up his pants, the girl on the hospital bed knocked out due to …well, he’d love to say it was his skills in bed, but she really had lost a lot of blood so there was that. His head snapped sidewards as the door opened, a dark brow raised in amusement. “Want to join us?”

What-- what the hell? *she shook her head as she saw the girl* Is she all right? *she stepped closer into the room and then realised what’s been going on here, still looking concerned she shook her head again this time adressing his question* No, God. Is she definitely okay?

“What happened was…awful. It was like watching a horror movie but up close and personal and I’ve never liked horror movies.” She sighs sadly. “I’ve never seen a dead body before but I saw so many the other night. I was hiding in my house with the dogs. I know that’s really cowardly but I was just…so scared.”

I know. *shakes her head remebering it all starting* It was terrible. And that’s not cowardly at all, hiding is smart in this situation! I feel so thankful for the ones that are brave enough to actually go out there tho. A lot of us would probably not be here if it wasn’t for them.

“Not right away, no. Need to run a couple more tests to be completely sure before we give it to someone. This isn’t for everyone, it isn’t a cure per-se. It just buys us time with those who are infected until we come up with the permanent solution. – Are you alright? You look pale and like you need to take a good night of sleep.”

Oh I see. Time is precious yeah. Do you think it’s gonna take much longer to find a real cure? You’re close aren’t ya? I don’t want to sound impatient or anything but realistically we can’t all live in hospital forever... I’m fine, I don’t think anyone can get much sleep these days, I’ll sleep when it’s over.

Ah its ok, I get you - the whole ‘being tired’ thing is a pain in the ass. It sucks even more when you’ve been on the road for as long as I have. [He checked his arm for anything serious] Nope, not that I know of! Just a few minor grazes and scrapes, thanks for asking though! 

How long have you been traveling for? And more importantly - how did you end up here? It’s not the best place to wind up.*she nods letting a little smile appear at the corner of her lips, she notices the dog* Great then, is you’re buddy allright there too?

The situation in Beacon Falls was bad, to say the least, and Blake and his canine companion had chosen what had seemed to be the worst time possible to arrive at the town. Everything had fell into complete and utter disarray, making it impossible for Blake to come to the deduction as to whether things were like this prior to his arrival. He slid to the floor with a defeatist attitude, allowing his pet to rest his head on his lap. He was infuriated at the fact that there were all these people suffering, and he had the capability to help them, yet he could do nothing except give in to defeat. “Oh- sorry! I’m not in the way of anything, am I?” He uttered as someone accidentally kicked him with their foot.

No, no, sorry. I’m just tired, I didn’t see you there. *Pepper shrugged appologetically and then examined the guy* Are you all right? You have any injuries or anything that needs seeing to?

“———- I… This is it. Do you see it? How the vaccine attacks the virus cells right there? It’s slowing the development, the blood cells aren’t decomposing at the same speed as before. It’s recognizing the virus as a foreign antigen, which stimulates specific lymphocytes to grow, multiply and finally produce antibodies that will stick to the antigens on the invading pathogens and it’s not destroying them, but slowing them down. It’s amazing, I’ve never seen something like this before! Virus still breaks through but it takes time because the vaccine creates a temporary barrier, helping the white blood cells. Oh my gosh - we did it. It’s ready.”

*Pepper shook her head, she was tired from staying up all night and wasn’t listening to half of things Lily just said, tho her face still lit up as the girl got excited* That’s great! About time there was some good news in this whole thing. So does that mean you’ll start treating people with it now? Everyone wants some cure or answers and people are getting more and more anxious as time goes on.

Eh, I think everyone here has always been a little bit of an alcoholic. Trust me a little drink won’t hurt you. It’s a good happy light hearted thing, it won’t bring you any danger. Just fun, like I said.

At the rate we’re all going alcohol will definitely the first thing we run out of. But true true. You’re sounding very convinsing over here. Might as well take your suggestion there.

Women with abs scare me a little because they have so much self control it’s unreal. But they also look better on guys. We should be proud of…our extra love that’s not pure muscle. What? I’m doing it myself? Okay Pep, let’s..just stop here before it gets any creepier

Women with abs scare me cuz they could take me down mostly. I’m way too proud of that, no exercise is my secret to this hot bod of mine. What no! Now you made it awkward and creepy by saying it may be. Definitely should stop.

kinleyxyoung:

Chicken are scary things…but yeah I get it, on a good day I’ll walk from bed to couch to kitchen and back. So I feel you. Well, you can appreciate your leg over your head. First of all, don’t think that’s what happens behind closed doors. I’m not …a circus monkey. Oh god now you put pictures in my head. 

You’re my kinda person then. I like abs and all but just not enough to work and actually have some myself. What do you mean, I wasn’t thinking anything *smiles sheepishly then laughs* Eww no, you’re doing it yourself, that twisted mind of yours

New theories happen on the daily basis here! Science can be so unpredictable sometimes.

I bet it is. Is there anything worth sharing tho? I’m dying to find something more about this virus thing.

lukexprescott:

Drink, party, and try not to get bitten by the infected people? Sounds like a great time!!

Not the last part tho. The town has turned into a proper party place, I’m definitely not hating it. There’s not much to do other than drink and goof around, it just seems like people are trying to get stir crazy here

Come on Pepper, get off your lazy ass. We’re going to the High Dive.

I guess I could drag myself out today. Drinks or food?

liaxhamilton:

Ummm..have you gotten drunk at all? The first step to any adventure or any fun is to get super drunk and see where that takes you.

I have in the past,yeah. I won’t say that doesn’t sound like something I’d wanna do to be honest. A lot of people are turning to the bottle these days, it’s like a habit to people by now.
