From Dusk Till Dawn...

[cityship]

...Okay, so maybe that movie was about vampires and not zombies.

But as the battle in the Vatican dragged on, it might feel like it had been going just that long.

And it showed no signs of letting up just yet.

"That's when you tear their arms off and beat them to death with them."

See what he's doing, Tex? He's avoiding having to go get ammo. Because right now he's still hoping, faintly, he won't have to go. And how annoying would that be anyway?

"Normally? That's what I would do, yeah. But I don't have a body right now, and like I said, yours is basically Spam to a zombie."

"Hey! I can totally do that too!"

He totally has muscle mass, Tex. Don't be deceived by the appearance of flab!

"You're not metal all the way through. They get through that armor and you're dead."

"What makes you think they're gonna do that? It's pretty solid."

Re: Special Message

"Solid enough to put up a whole crowd of zombies trying to tear it off? And in case you didn't notice, some of those things have claws and teeth."

"..."

"Tex? This is why I've been up on the roof."

He was happy not knowing that!

"Well, now you've got warning. Why do you think I kept yelling about putting in some distance?"

Re: Special Message

[whyarewehere]

"I thought that was because of the grabby arms. You didn't say anything about teeth!"

Re: Special Message

[domeanthings.livejournal.com]

"Why do you think they were trying to grab you? They want to bite you!"

Re: Special Message

[whyarewehere]

"They don't have pointy teeth though! Pointy is very important!"

Re: Special Message

[domeanthings.livejournal.com]

"I saw some ones with pointy teeth and pointy other crap. You don't want these things getting close."

Re: Special Message

"Then why do we have to go out there again?"

Seriously Tex. Enlighten him. Grif really fails to see any reason why to leave his nice, relatively safe roof.

Re: Special Message

"Because there's more where those came from, and if we don't kill them all, they won't stop coming. Do you want to get cornered in here, or do you want to take them out and live?"

Re: Special Message

[whyarewehere]

"You know, if we stay here they'll all get here eventually."

He shrugs. "We can just like... wait. I'm good for waiting!"

Re: Special Message

[domeanthings.livejournal.com]

"...While you're waiting? They're gnawing on everybody else in the pod caverns. Think about how many zombies that is for a minute."

Re: Special Message

[whyarewehere]

"...Okay that sounds pretty bad," he admits grudgingly.

"Besides. You do that? You can say you helped save the ass of everybody who pops out later. That's probably worth at least a few favors..."

Wellll.... bragging rights are pretty cool. But... but...

That sounds like work.

"I'd rather be on the roof. Let somebody else do it."

Re: Special Message

Tex sighs, but the helmet hides any kind of eyeroll. "We might find a terminal along the way. It'd get me out of the armor faster."

Re: Special Message

[whyarewehere]

Grif snorts. "That's the first thing you've said that's actually tempting!"

Re: Special Message

[domeanthings.livejournal.com]

"Think of it as an upside for both of us. You get rid of me faster, I get to make sure these things get taken out in the meantime."
