After a while of walking, Mori tentatively reached out to hold onto Tohru's hand. He didn't want to get separated, after all, and the warmth of another person was comforting to him. He looked up when he saw the silhouettes of other people, smiling under his bird mask. "Look, there's people here! Other people are still alive too!" He exclaimed, sounding genuinely surprised.

(Baby baby boi I love him)

Lilac turned to face the newcomers and her eyes welled up with tears. They were here….they were right in front of her…she quickly got to her feet and ran to her siblings, hugging them. Everything felt right…until she smelled blood. She pulled away and noticed Hailey bleeding. “No…”

Tohru clasped Mori's hand in his own and let out a sigh of relief.
"Yeah, let's go check it out!" he replied, leading Mori onward.
As they got closer, Tohru realized there were mainly a bunch of kids at the outpost. Not what he'd signed up for.

(Tohru: Mori, say "fuck"
Mori: f-f- duck!)

(Oop-)
Mori trotted along at Tohru's side, panting softly from the faster pace. He looked around and saw mostly people who were younger, although all noticeably older than himself. He supposed most of the other kids were out with their parents somewhere. Definitely not dead or turned.

(Baby baby boi the youngest of my characters is 12 Oop-)

Lilac immediately pulled Hailey away to look her over and gasped. “This isn’t good…” Hailey coughed. “S-Sorry Lila…”

Tohru, as they drew closer to the others at the outpost, noticed the all-too-familiar bright glint of blood in the sunlight. One of them was hurt. He broke off from where he had been walking close to Mori and sprinted over to see what he might be able to do to help.

“H-How did this happen?!” Lilac looked to her siblings for answers. Bean sighed. “We were on our way here when Hails fell out of the tree she was in…”

Mori stumbled a bit when Tohru ran away from him, his breathing hitching a bit. He obviously didn't really understand what was going on, but did his best to run and catch up anyway. "Mr. Tohru!" He called out, panting softly. "Where are you going?"

(I always hear it with the same inflection as "Mr. Frodo!" And lemme just say, it melts me a little bit.)
"I think someone over there's hurt," Tohru replied over his shoulder, "You can catch up to me in a minute, no rush."
He eventually made it to Lilac and her siblings.
"Hey, hey, what can I do to help?" he murmured, slinging his bag off his shoulder.

(Lmao)
Mori nodded a bit and kept following, soon managing to catch up so he could stick to Tohru again. He stayed slightly behind the man, peering around his side to see what was going on. He still had on the bird mask, but the fear in his eyes was still visible through the eye holes.

“B-Bandage her wound…we need to stop the bleeding…” Luka told him, tearing up. Lilac and Bean both nodded.

Josephine had jumped up and Lyn nearly dropped her sandwich at the sight of the Rose siblings. They ran over to them, but as they had no medical supplies on hand, they were rendered useless and awkward as they watched Lilac embrace the small boy and the girl in his feeble arms.
Then Josefine glanced off to the side, spotting Tohru and Mori. "Droga, more survivors?" she gasped.
Lyn was rendered speechless. Everything was happening a little too fast.
Josefine stepped forward. "Wait, who are you?" she asked Tohru.

Bean noticed Lyn and Josefine and looked at them. “I could ask the same about you.” Lilac stepped in between them. “Bea, they took care of me while you guys were gone…”
