Sure I've seen pictures. What's up with some of the guys having no pants?

[Seriously though. This is what she's gotten out of that.]

That's becuh-

[ ....something she hasn't ever... really.... thought about.... ]

I don't even know. Actually.

But whenever they took showers, they still wrapped towels around their waists. So it's like they knew they were supposed to be covered up, but they just didn't give a shit. Or at least, Donald sure as hell didn't. Mickey wore pants, though. And the girls always had short things on under their skirts. [ she laughs, because why the hell is she getting so- no defensive, but just talkative about it, yeah. ] Disney cartoons were really messed up when they first came out, like just- actually offensive, but they got their shit together by the time I was around to watch the cartoons, yeah. They're animals, I don't know. They can get away with not wearing any pants.

It all looked weird to me. Like the one girl shacking up with seven short guys. I mean seriously weird.

[Kids had such odd childhoods back in the day. She wonders how any of them grew up normal with that kind of batshit around them. Seriously, who puts pants on some characters then not on others?]

[ that earns her a big laugh - just a single 'HAH'. ]

It's not too weird. The story was like, her evil step-mother tried to kill her to take the throne, I guess the girl was next in line or whatever, but she got away and ended up crashing at their place, that's all. I think. It wasn't one of my favorites.

The princesses get cooler every movie. Less damsel-in-distress, you know? But uh, anyway.

Yeah, Disney Land was this place in California that had roller coasters and live shows and people dressed up as the characters walking around to take pictures with the kids. The slogan of it was like, "the happiest place on Earth". Which was my original point.
everysecond: (I Totally Did It)

[personal profile] everysecond 2014-03-08 06:54 am (UTC)(link)
Happiest place on Earth, huh? Someone thought they had the biggest dick in that contest.

[She really doesn't believe in that happiest place thing. Unless it's here. This place is awesome.]

But, I think I can get the point. Because this place is fucking awesome and there is all kinds of stuff I've never seen before.

Automatically the best by default.
cons: (☢ aw. proud of you.)

[personal profile] cons 2014-03-09 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
They kind of did, though. It was great.

[ it was a tourist trap, which meant whenever she did manage to get to go ( which was only twice, both when her sister was still very young, but not before Wichita picked up all her awesome bad habits ), she usually managed to pickpocket and steal back double what she paid for her ticket. at least. so, worth it. ]

Yeah, it's- yeah. I mean, it's got its down sides, but compared to Z-Land? Happiest place on Earth.
everysecond: (Wanna Be My Friend?)

[personal profile] everysecond 2014-03-11 07:13 am (UTC)(link)
Pretty sure we're not on Earth anymore. But I get the idea.

[She likes it here though. Mainly because just about anything is better than how she died and what she's seen. What she's had to do. Yeah, all that crap she never wants to talk about ever. Killing her father after her father killed her mother. How she was brought into being a Firefly.

How she realized Ellie wasn't going insane like she was...]


Okay, I have to ask. That's totally not your real name, right?
cons: (☢ awkwardly amused)

[personal profile] cons 2014-03-13 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
Nah. Wichita's my hometown. It's a thing some of us do where I'm from, just- to make it easier, I guess. Can't get too close to somebody if you don't even know their real name, right?

[ and that kind of says a lot, that she can go by her home city. mostly just that that's how few people are left in the country, in her world. people can go by the name of the city they came from and there aren't any overlaps. she just had to help her sister pick a city she liked the sound of. they've never even been to Little Rock, but she liked the name best out of all the city names on the map they checked out, so, there's that.

also, as Columbus so eloquently put it, serious trust issues.
]

Guess I just haven't broken the habit yet.

Hey, it's all good. It's a badass name if you ask me.

[Which she didn't but hey...that's not the point, right? The fact is that Riley digs it and isn't asking for her real name. It's not the important thing here. If she wants to be called Wichita then Wichita is totally her name now.]
cons: (☢ нм noт тoo ѕнaввy.)

[personal profile] cons 2014-03-14 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Right? Thank you. People usually tell me it's a weird name. Meanwhile, Wichita's a great city. If you like urban cities that don't smell like garbage. [ sorry NYC. she's been in you before, and she wasn't that into it. ] Not that anything smells all that great back home. See? That's another thing that's good about this place, the lack of -dead body smell.
everysecond: (Baby...I Am Awesome)

[personal profile] everysecond 2014-03-15 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
I know, right? Everything smells like crap back home. Dead bodies, trash, rotting shit. It's fucking gross.

[She's seen a lot of gross too. All of the Infected and pictures of when they die and the bite on her hand and...

Yeah. Lots of gross.]
cons: (☢ нeн)

[personal profile] cons 2014-03-15 12:07 am (UTC)(link)
Hey. Do you want to smell the greatest smell there is to smell here? We're not too far from it.

[ she's not going to play tourist, but there's one shop that Wichita really loves, and that she'll definitely share with the new kid that's dealt with zombies and bullshit for way longer than she has. ]
everysecond: (Leader Of The Pack)

[personal profile] everysecond 2014-03-15 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
You don't have to tell me twice. Take me there.

[She is so interested in awesome smelling things. Well, she's interested in everything here but awesome smelling things definitely jump to the top of her list of cool.]
cons: crownage by <lj user=broski> (☢ well ladeda.)

[personal profile] cons 2014-03-18 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
[ she just nods, shoving both of her hands into the pockets of her jacket before turning on her heel and heading down the little cobblestone street they've found themselves on. but when she gets to the street the shop is on, she leads her behind the buildings ( which probably seems shady as shit, but whatever, she has no doubt Riley isn't worried at all about getting jumped by her or anyone else here. the beauty of surviving fucking zombies is that nothing scares you, after that ) until they're finally at the right stop ]

I started wandering around back here just to, y'know, avoid people, but then- Here stand right around here.

[ they're standing between the pizzeria and the bakery ]

It kind of sucks when they're both giving off smells at the same time, but- [ as if on cue, a plume of smokey exhaust comes from a chimney on top of the building on the left. Wichita just shuts her eyes, taking a deep breath in ] - oh, holy shit, smell that? Mozzarella cheese. And basil. Or oregano, whatever the hell. Somebody's either just ordered mozzarella sticks, or a calzone.
everysecond: (Yeah.  I'm The Best.)

[personal profile] everysecond 2014-03-20 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
[She takes a moment to close her eyes too and breathe. And oh holy fuck. That's amazing. Her mouth is watering already.]

I've never had either of those but they sound fucking awesome.
cons: (☢ υм. yeaн. ѕυre.)

[personal profile] cons 2014-03-22 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
What. Oh. ..Oh, right, I guess that makes sense. You've probably never had deepfried anything, have you?

[ she actually sounds genuinely disturbed by that. sad, maybe. ]

Okay, this goes against my usual MO, but, I need to make an exception. I'm treating you to mozzarella sticks, because you have to- you can't not know what- wow. C'mon.

[ time to circle around the building yup ]
everysecond: (Default)

[personal profile] everysecond 2014-03-22 01:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Nope. Never had deep fried anything except for staring at pictures.

[Which means...]

Cool. I'll pay you back sometime.

[And thus, she follows because she has to try this.]
cons: (☢ ѕĸepтιcal.)

[personal profile] cons 2014-03-24 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
I'll hold you to it.

[ the paying her back sometime bit, yeah. not literally, but Wichita's totally the type to bring it up at random hey, remember that one time-?, which is why she rarely does stuff like this. but whatever. she's hungry anyway. so she leads Riley around to the front of the pizzeria, pushing the door open and holding it for her to head on in, too. she heads straight to the counter, orders up to large baskets of mozzarella sticks, then moves to plop down at one of the small tables near the counter ]

Oh, before the food's ready, I'm gonna say right off that I totally can't handle zombie talk while eating. I'll vom, I really will. But I kind of want to hear more about your world, if that's not too shitty to ask. I can't imagine what the world's like after being infested that long.

[personal profile] everysecond 2014-03-24 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
Overgrown, buildings falling down, plants everywhere... At least that's outside the QZ. Of course, that's the only place that matters. The QZ isn't worth anything else at all.
cons: (☢ мy lacĸ oғ cleve ιѕ concernιng yeѕ.)

[personal profile] cons 2014-03-26 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
QZ? Is that like a- safehouse, or something?
everysecond: (That Wasn't Cool)

[personal profile] everysecond 2014-03-26 10:31 am (UTC)(link)
Quarantine Zone. It's the part of any city that is contained by the military to ensure no Infected get in. Of course, the system is fucked up because people still managed to get it.
