It looks like I've got a minute to write, so hello!

Bastet, I'm sorry I haven't shown up at the Hatchery. I'm still on the farm with Apple and Lix. It's holding up pretty well against the zombies.

I haven't seen very many people since this started. Is everyone okay?

No, it's fine. Don't worry about the Hatchery; we'll handle things here.

And how well is pretty well?

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

Okay. How is it there?

Well [...] Huo decided to use one of the farm machines on them. It was really helpful.

[longnosedliar.livejournal.com]

Krile, thank goodness you're [WHOOSH smudge of mud and blood] ...safe! Why are you guys at the farm?

[treeleopardess]

The attacks are steady. But we're holding.

[that makes her chuckle to herself]

Sounds like it. That's pretty creative of him.

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

That's good. I mean, that you're holding. Be careful, okay?

Someone called it a combine harvester. [If she was a little less horrified by the sight of the results she'd say something about not needing fertilizer anymore.]

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

Because the zombies are here too! And not all of the farmers can fight, and the farm animals need protecting too.

How are you? And where are you?

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

I'm fine. I helped Rabbit fight off some the other day.

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

Oh good. Do you have proper weapons, like a sword or a gun?

[azhdarchidae.livejournal.com]

There are zombie birds now.

[complaining is fun.]

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Rabbit has his hammer and I have a big baseball bat. Oh, and my gun when I transform.

[longnosedliar.livejournal.com]

It seems unsafe to be in such an open area, though... be really careful. Really really really careful.

I'm okay. I'm at the barricades right now.

Say... Cloud's not over there, is he?

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

Oh we're in one of the barns, not out in the fields. And we are. You better be careful too, okay?

He's not. Sorry.

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

Oh good. A baseball bat sounds really useful, and so does a gun.

Stay safe as you can, okay?

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

Birds? How fast are they?

[handy-psychic.livejournal.com]

I will, I promise. I'll get to the Wilderness if I can't handle it.

[longnosedliar.livejournal.com]

You can count on it. Just call me... the Careful Sniper. Okay?

It's okay. I kind of figured.

[stonyfaced.livejournal.com]

[This is written in a hurried scrawl.]

still at the barricades around housing, nobody's dead yet, be careful or else I'll smack you

[azhdarchidae.livejournal.com]

Huh. Medium, I guess?


They keep coming after me when I land.

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

Aye-aye! When this is over, I'll want to hear the story of The Careful Sniper versus the zombies, okay?

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

There aren't any safe spots they can't get to? Or where they won't appear?

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

[this one makes her grin.]

That's a relief... the same goes for you, too!

[azhdarchidae.livejournal.com]

There are only so many places I can land where the ground ones won't find me, and the birds know all of them.


I haven't seen any big ones [note: an eight-foot wingspan apparently does not qualify as "big"] and it's only a nuisance now, but.

[live_ringer]

[Hastily scrawled.]

Gene-1 here. I'm alive. Good to see you are, too.

[feathered-earth.livejournal.com]

There's a cavern under Captain Planet where my dragon friend Havoc lives. He might be grumpy about you going in there, but it's better than zombies.

[azhdarchidae.livejournal.com]

[On the other hand, a huge-sized dragon does qualify as "big".]

The red one? Ehhh.
