(He's not mad, just upset that he didn't take care of her better and hadn't insisted she wear the dress.)
Dare quickly got up and went after her. "C-Claire! Wait…." He grabbed her into a hug. "I'm not mad at you. It's not your fault. It's mine. I made you wear the dress…" He wilted a bit at his own selfishness.
(Nyeerrrp I guess she’s just being super overreactive)
Claire was sucked into his hug, and she flashed him a small smile before it faded quickly. “W-Well,” She stuttered again. “I d-didn’t think it was that bad at first… u-until you said something…..”
(Lol, Molly low-key hates Dare and Claire)
(Oh. Oof. Well people can be like that sometimes)
(I know XD)(Molly's not a nice person, ignore her plz)
Dare shook his head. "You were trying to tell me it was uncomfortable earlier. I should've listened…"
App saw the station after loping along the tracks for a bit. She sped up and turned a little more human again, straightening to two legs.
Erin and Jessica got up and Erin tackled her daughter's curls into something manageable. After choking down a few cardboard-flavored protein bars, they finished packing up their stuff. "So. Where are we headed now?" Erin asked. "I got us out of the zombie-infested city, but what's the plan now?"
(Nweeeee i is back…. Sorta)
Claire sorta went quiet. Well I was the one who wanted to wear it…. "I suppose…." She murmured. "I can change back… I think I'll be better off just wearing my own clothes…."
Clovis catches sight of Apollyon headed their way. He smiles and waves to her.
App was walking onto the platform when she saw Clovis smiling and waving a her. She ducked her head and went in a direction opposite of him, pretending to be heading for the restrooms.
(Nweeeee i is back…. Sorta)
Claire sorta went quiet. Well I was the one who wanted to wear it…. "I suppose…." She murmured. "I can change back… I think I'll be better off just wearing my own clothes…."
Dare sighed. "Yeah. I'm still sorry though. … I love you…" He just wanted her to stay comfy and safe and anything that violated that made him unhappy and sad.
Claire smiled, a sheepish look on her face. "I… I love you too…" She rested on him, soon pulling him back to where the others were still sleeping, yet it seemed like a few of them were awake. I should change back before we head out….
Dare looked at her. "You can go change." He said, as if reading her mind. "I'll pack up your stuff for you."
She glanced around a bit awkwardly. "…Do you happen to remember where I put my clothes?…." Claire began to get jittery.
Dare tilted his head as he thought. "Ummm… I think you hung them over a shower door to let them dry."
"Alright…. I'll be right back then." She winked at him cutely before going off into the bathroom and showers. Is this where I left them?…. Claire glanced around. I don't think so…. I thought Dare washed them… But…. She searched some more and found them where he said they were. How come I didn't see that? She frowned and got in a stall, changing quickly.
After zipping her jacket up to her chest, she came out with the dress in her hands. I'm not sure what to do with this… She came back. "Well…. Here it is…." She said lowly.
Dare took the dress and put it into his bag before zipping it up. "We should probably eat some breakfast before we hit the road. Do you wanna grab some food?"
Claire shrugged. "I guess…. But maybe we should ask the others so we can all eat together. If they want." She fiddled with her thumbs. They all don't seem very… Enthusiastic about getting outta here. But I can guarantee they're thinking about it.
App was walking onto the platform when she saw Clovis smiling and waving a her. She ducked her head and went in a direction opposite of him, pretending to be heading for the restrooms.
Clovis furrows his brow, but turns around and heads back inside.
Okayyy…
App walked into the bathrooms, passing by Claire and Dare. She came to a stop in front of a mirror. She sighed as she ran her fingers through her hair, getting rid of the tangles in her silver and black locks.
Claire shrugged. "I guess…. But maybe we should ask the others so we can all eat together. If they want." She fiddled with her thumbs. They all don't seem very… Enthusiastic about getting outta here. But I can guarantee they're thinking about it.
Dare shrugged and nodded his head. "Yeah, sure. Why don't you go ask App first? I just saw her head into the bathroom."
“Alright… I’ll go and… ask her.” Claire headed off, back to the bathroom where she thought she went. She kept her head down and her hands up around her collar bone, writhing them nervously. I hope she’s…. somewhat alright…. She was about to peek her head in when she decided to knock politely first. “A-App?” She rose her voice. “Are you in there?”
App looked up. "Hm? Oh. Yeah, I'm here. You can come in." She turned back to the mirror and sadly played with her black strand of hair.
Claire walked in slowly, a tad nervous. But when she saw her, she was suprised. I— I don’t think I’ve ever seen her like that… (correct me if I bein dumb).. “Erm…. we…. Dare and I were thinking about… eating breakfast soon. Do — Do you want to come join us?”
Erin and Jessica got up and Erin tackled her daughter's curls into something manageable. After choking down a few cardboard-flavored protein bars, they finished packing up their stuff. "So. Where are we headed now?" Erin asked. "I got us out of the zombie-infested city, but what's the plan now?"
Molly jerkily and suddenly turns her head around, directing her cold glare at the mom.
(Lol, the mom)
"There's a not-so-dead city not far from here. Or there should be." she squints at Erin, "you don't need to come, really-" Clovis joins them, ruffling Molly's hair and interrupting.
-"strength is in numbers though, right?"
Molly rolls her eyes and mumbles under her breath before shoving him and walking away.
He watches with an amused smile and raised eyebrows, before turning back to Erin.
"You and Jess are welcome to come along, you'd be a lot if help. I have somewhat of a map-" he pulls a large sketch paper out of his bag and shows her their map, "-it's not everything, but it's got enough on it."
