[Daryl takes to the earpieces about mid-morning.]

Alright, so it looks like most of us have been settling in at one of two places. The Hotel and the Warehouse. Some of you have taken yourselves elsewhere and as long you got shelter and can defend it, you're okay.

For those that ain't in the know, the Warehouse is this old building some of us found near the wall on the edge of the lake. Sound walls, one of them iron fences around the parking lot got them spikes on the top. Turned into loft space before everything went the way it did. Point is, we found a storm drain that's bringing water in pretty directly. So we got plenty of that for boiling. We got a fence we can defend. Room inside that to start a garden. Plenty of space inside for them that wants it. Found a bedding store, gonna be dragging some mattresses over from there...

[Not being all together was a little frustrating, but there was so much room and no walkers in the city (that they'd found so far), so it wasn't as worrisome. And hell, if the hotel got compromised, those that were there could find refuge in the warehouse.]

We got ourselves a friend that landed alone last week. Brought me something of a peace offering couple days back, after Newt went and got himself stuck up a tree.

[And the day Daryl yelled at everyone.]

Good sized deer. Been smoking the meat so it'll keep. Most of it's ready. You want some, you can come get some. Plenty to go around and deer's worth the effort of making the walk.

[Anything else he needed to bring up? ...oh, right.]

For those that need to be concerned about it [Alex], tonight is the first night of this month's full moon.

[There. Leadership for the day done with.]

[[action for those partaking in the smoked deer or anything else at the warehouse is perfectly fine.

EDIT: I misunderstood how the lake was butting up to the city, so there's been an edit regarding the warehouse location! It's close to the wall that has the lake on the other side. Not on the water itself. Sorry for the confusion.]]

Threaded | Flat

[After everything that had happened with Castiel, Athena had been keeping to herself. She was silent and somber and kept to her own space. She thought she had been adjusting well to being here but now she wasn't so sure.

It was hunger combined with Daryl's message that made her get up and seek him out where he was tending to the deer.]

I'm not sure how people get anything done with hunger.

[It was supposed to be light humor but it came out more like complaining. She was starving and it was her own fault for hiding away. She smiled up at him to let him know that she wasn't mad. Just in case he had been worrying that she was.]

I thought I could help you with dividing the meat.

In the future, I don't mind helping catch larger game. I can keep it still while someone else finishes it off.

[ DID SOMEONE SAY DEER

Even if they hadn't, Rose could smell it from practically a mile away. Heightened senses aside, it probably has to do with the fact that she's ridiculously hungry. Oh, sure, she's been getting enough small game to eat (and still mourns the loss of the maraschino cherries that didn't agree with her) but a deer is something she'd need a pack to take down. Well. Not need, but definitely preferred.

Either way, there's deer now and the blond makes the trek to the warehouse despite the fact that she probably shouldn't be considering she's still recovering. Lexa's natural healing mumbo jumbo seems to have done its work, but Rose knows she needs to eat to heal even faster since it's still a work in progress to say the least.

Her spirits are high if nothing else, at least. They'll likely hear her before they see her because, like with almost anything she does, Rose has to add just a little bit of musical flair. ]

We live in the shadows and we had the chance and threw it away and it's never gonna be the same; cause the years are following by like the rain and it's never gonna be the same 'til the life I knew comes to my house and says: Hello.

[ GRIN ]

Yes, hello, I heard there was deer to be had.
