Only The Strong Survive

Outlaw
She thought for a moment, figuring out who all actually lived here. "Me, three others, you, and I have no idea if Zach wants to stay or not." She replied, and noticing Vanessa watching the panther, added "Moon here ain't gonna hurt you."

Vanessa
She gave a bit of a nervous laugh in response. "I love cats; have two of my own at home." At the last word she stopped suddenly and stared vacantly at the wall. Her head started buzzing slightly. "so we should get along.." she added softly.

Outlaw
She watched Vanessa sharply as she suddenly cut off and stared at the wall. "You good? You should maybe lay down and try to get a rest." She suggested.

Vanessa
"Rest...yeah rest is a good idea," she breathed. Even so, she remained motionless, subconsciously finding solace in being still. 

Outlaw
She stood up and gently took Vanessa's arm, leading her to the cot she'd chosen and gently pushing her onto it before arranging the pillow for her and draping the blanket over the girl. "There. Now try going to sleep. You need it seems to me like." She gently ordered the girl.

Vanessa
She was almost completely oblivious to Outlaw taking her arm. images blurred past and suddenly she found herself lying comfortably on the cot. She stared weakly at the ceiling until her eyes slowly closed of their own accord and she drifted off into a deeply needed sleep. As she lay there, her mind in a moment of sabotage conjured images that made her wish she were awake. Images of her family and loved ones as walkers, rising up from their graves to come and destroy her--to make her one of them. Unbeknownst to her, she tossed on the cot fitfully, trying to escape the vivid images. As time passed, her body became too tired after a while to torture her any longer, the images faded to black, and she slept deeply for the moment.

Ryan
 Throughout their conversation, Ryan had been unproductively standing outside, back against the trunk of the massive hut-bearing tree as he anxiously smoked a cigarette. This doesn't help your nerves. It makes them worse, his logical conscious felt the need to remind him, which the man responded to with a sigh, tapping the cigarette now in his hand as a sort of nervous habit. Good. To hell with me. Eventually he put it out and walked over to where the ladder would drop down, gazing up into the hut. "Hey, can I come up?," he asked, raising his voice to ensure they could hear him.

Outlaw
She watched Vanessa a moment, then walked out to the deck and lowered the ladder for Zachary, immediately smelling he'd had a smoke. "Word of warning, I don't care if you smoke, I don't one every once in a while myself, but once Auberon, the red head boy, gets back, might be best not to do it round him. Unless you enjoy never ending lectures on the health dangers and yada yada." She cautioned him quietly.

Ryan
 Upon grabbing hold of the ladder and putting his foot on the first rung, he paused to listen to Outlaw, nodding slightly when she was finished and climbing up. "Aren't you a little young for that?," he questioned sternly in that fatherly sort of way once he was on the deck, looking up at the tall girl and raising an eyebrow, folding his arms after asking to accentuate his point.

Outlaw
She held back a snicker and leaned one arm on the deck railing. "Depending on whether you go by the age I look or the age I technically am, I could be too young to do so, si, or I could not." She replied vaguely.

(don't ask me to explain but if I must just message me and yes everyone is informed it's fine thank you for your patience)

Empire
Since no one knows what happened to him, he is currently bucking up a storm. 
Thank you for tuning in.
