(I'm back, sorry I totally bailed yesterday)
“Yeah, it would suck if you were the only one left, I mean I was with Darius and Dev since the beginning, so I sorta can’t relate to the feeling of possible being the only one” June shrugged.
Darius looked at June confused, “who is Dev?”
(So correct me if I'm wrong @jacen-is-really-fackin-gay but didn't June go to sleep a few posts before this? I'll reply once I know lol)
(darius fell asleep but hit his head so it woke him up)
(Yes, and then June went to sleep after Darius woke up, right?)
(she was going to, but decided to keep talking to Gus I thought)
(Ok, just wanted to clear that up xD)
Gus coughed and changed the subject. "Darius, did you remember to write down that thing I taught you earlier 'bout usin' a knife to fight? Th' tip about when to actually draw your weapon?"
Darius opened the notebook and showed where he had written it down to gus, "this?"
"Yep, that's th' one. Good." Gus nodded approvingly. "I forgot t' mention somethin' else real important, which is that y'gotta keep your knife clean, no matter what. Any time you use it, you clean it off 'n dry it 'fore you put it away. Otherwise it gets rusty and breaks, see?"
Darius nodded and wrote that down.
June looked at Gus with a silent 'thank you' for changing the subject. The question Darius had asked about her brother pained her.
Elodie sighed and crossed her arms across her chest, her eyes filled with hurt and betrayal.
"Yeah but why did you have to shot me? to prove a point that you don't need me? that's harsh Jesse. Even for you." She said in a monotone voice.
Her hands were trembling, she shoved them under her arms to keep from thinking about it to much.
Jasper moves in her sleep before eventually waking up and rubbing her eyes. She yawned slightly as she stretched out her arms, "Awm…" She looked around before noticing she was leaning on Gus and she moved slightly. "Sorry.."
Jesse pauses his the doorway, whipping around to face Elodie, her eyes wide. "You think you fucking know me enough to be the judge of that?" She growls, her voice loud and strong.
"What? Oh- that's the sound i heard then..i did see a relatively tall girl carrying out someone, but i didn't see where they were headed too." He brightened up at the thought of a group of more people. "how many people does your group have?"
Tuna the cat purred underneath Jezs touch, nuzzling into it.
-
Jez thought about it for a second "uhm….I think 5? Do you have a group?" He asks looking up at the man.
He shook his head, "i used to have a group, but there…all gone now." He sighed, looking away holding a hand to his neck.
Jez's gaze dropped down to the ashen floor.
"Sorry…" He looks back up to him "uhm I can bring you back to the convenience store if you'd like" he says trying to lift the mood.
Evan looks up at Jez with a soft smile, "Is that where your group is? Because if it's alright with them it would be nice to have some company for a good bit.."
Darius nodded and wrote that down.
June looked at Gus with a silent 'thank you' for changing the subject. The question Darius had asked about her brother pained her.
Gus returned June's look understandingly. It was the least he could do. "Y'know what, Darius, here's an idea: S'pose you jus' put down in your notebook somethin' like: "check your knife" or "is your knife clean?" That way hopefully you'll see it a lot and remember t' take care of your weapon on th' regular."
Darius nodded and wrote that down, “alright” he pulled out his other notebook, this one more worn and had pages falling out, one fell it had a picture - a drawing- of someone who looked a lot like June.
She quickly snatched up the fallen paper and held it close, hiding it from Darius, “you still have that notebook, I thought I got rid of it” she frowned.
Gus blinked. He wasn't sure what to say to hep this time–he couldn't exactly change the subject when Darius was holding the notebook in his hands. He watched both Darius and June uncertainly, hoping Darius wouldn't notice June's sudden change in behavior.
(Lol jasper woke up and spoke to Gus-)
(oops sorry! I'll respond to that real quick ^^; )
Jasper moves in her sleep before eventually waking up and rubbing her eyes. She yawned slightly as she stretched out her arms, "Awm…" She looked around before noticing she was leaning on Gus and she moved slightly. "Sorry.."
It took Gus a moment to register that Jasper had woken up and spoken to him. "Huh? Oh, you're alright kid." He gave her a quick smile and spoke quietly, aside from Darius and June. "How you doin'?"
She just sat next to him continuing to rub her eyes, not hating being so close, she tried to wake herself up more and adjusted her beanie.
"Hope Jez's okay out there," Gus continued in a conversational whisper. "If he's gone much longer I might light a fire anyway so's he can find his way back in the dark. Might be riskier, but better 'n lettin' him get lost."
Darius looked at June confused, focusing on her so that he would not suddenly forget what was going on.
June folded up the paper and put it in her pocket without a word. She stood up and went back inside.
Elodie gave Jesse a hard stare, and inhaled sharply before speaking.
"I think I have a right to judge when i'm the one injured because of it." She said crossly.
Jesse scoffs as if she found this amusing.
"Next time vhen I say move. Move. Your own stupidity got you hurt. Live vith the consequences" she growls
-
Jez smiles to him "uhm yeah I can bring you with me on my way back. They're….nice" he says hesitantly, only thinking about Gus and Darius.
(Darius is nice and dumb, but nice)
Elodie feels her spine tense and her eyes went dark again.
"Please get out." She stated turning her head away, so she didn't have to look at Jesse "please." She repeated
