actbelong started following you

    Ellie was sitting on the front porch of an rotting house, polishing one of her guns. Blood had splattered on her face from cleaning the area of infected. She was glad to find a home that wasn’t filled with spores. She didn’t hear the other that was roaming around. 

    It was bad of her to let her guard down. But sometimes you just need a moment to yourself. 

    “I walk through the valley of the shadow of death” Ellie began to sing, wiping her gun down with a old cloth. “and I fear no evil because i’m blind to it all.”

“I’m warning you. Stay away.” 

It was one of those moments where AJ was doing his best to keep up a strong exterior, but internally? Oh God, he hoped Clementine came back soon. This girl was bigger than him, and he was sure he could shoot her if he needed to, but he always did fear being on the other end of a gun.

jane vc: all i heard was that you wanna get kicked too

   @actbelong​ !

   “shhh.” a finger is placed over their finger just in case she couldn’t hear- it was suspiciously quiet for a reason. well, besides the groaning of a walker that had gotten itself stuck in a snare trap. it continues to struggle despite no actual way of escape, why trinket was just staring until now was unknown. amber eyes glance between this new stranger and the walker.

   there’s an awkward pause of silence before the rabbit masked individual speaks up again, still whispering. “..s’stuck, was ‘bout to loot it.” well, not without killing it first. “would you.. do th’ honors?” what a strange fellow.

                         𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐣𝐚𝐧𝐞’𝐬 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐬 𝐡𝐢𝐭 𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐤.     the jarring sense of it all threatens to break across her features—-under impending doom of crumbling the stoic façade clementine’s tried to keep up for all these years.   to the point where it feels like its a habit to do it now  : dont let it effect you. dont let them know its effected you.   && it breaks her own heart somewhat she has to remind herself that it was okay to relax.    to turn that switch off in her brain that’s been there the following days after losing lee, kenny, omid, & christa. . .           when the world was quiet & everyone slept except her & jane .   it was okay to let herself go  &  just be clementine.   the girl that didn’t know what the hell to do.   but did know that she would do anything in the world to keep aj safe & alive.   to keep ALL of them alive.    its been YEARS since she’s known any other kinder touch than the one’s aj has given her.   or the other ghosts of her past that are never trailed too far behind.   it wasn’t that she hated physical contact.   no,   it was much more deeper.   much more COMPLEX than that.   she craved it more than she’d be comfortable to admit.    she didn’t think she could admit it to jane,   not even in the warm nook they’ve gotten themselves into while aj slumbers peacefully.   blissfully unaware.                  the only person she could admit to  ;   was herself.     she could admit sentimental things like touch & the good things that usually came from them.   like the fact she was starved for hugs.   she missed the simplicity that came from them. the bases of love,  friendship,     connection.     mutual affection.  the most important people in her life that had given her that were gone.  & not a second, day,     goes by where she feels like she had taken it all for granted.   had taken each && every MOMENT of hearing lee’s deep,   baritone laugh that reminded her of her dads laugh.  warm,  full of GENUINE joy—–whether it be something they saw or a question she asked && it somehow brought some joy out of them.    she had missed kenny’s terms of endearment for her whenever she was sad. “ its okay, darlin’, you did the right thing”  with arms securing around her much shorter & smaller stature to reinforce the fact he wanted to make her feel better.  where it was so easy to just cry into the material of his hulking,    wool coat and release all the confusion,  worry,  anger,   &&  sadness that she’s barely had time to even begin to COPE from. 

            now,    as her honey eyes lift to glance over at jane with a sense of caution and doubt that brims,     she wasnt…entirely sure if she could hug jane as easily as it was to hug lee,    && kenny.   but leaning against her by the shoulder,  it was close enough.   it makes her think about the meaning behind jane’s words. really think.  ❛  ------ no reason why you can’t learn now.   ❜  clem eventually says, offering up a small smile over at her friend.   ❛  walkers are probably TERRIBLE at doing secret handshakes, too. you know.  ❜   leaning up,  she maneuvered until she was more comfortable,   & held up her palm,   eyes alight with hopefulness .   ❛  wanna make our own? ❜

          apparently clem actually knew this woman, but she was a stranger to aj. clem had told him that, ‘jane’ - he believed is what he name is - had been around when he was a baby, but he’d been so young, he doesn’t remember her at all. and he has... trust issues.

          “ we can’t stop looking for clem! ” he’s quick to refuse, as determined as ever. “ i’m not going anywhere until i find her! ”

“I’m losing my control.”

“ I ... I guess we all are,” Clementine murmurs to her in the night, watching the fire snap and crackle, golden eyes never leaving the flames. Anything was better than to sink herself into depravity by remembering the awful things that she’d endured in this hellhole. Howe’s was her living prison, and in truth, she’d rather be anywhere but here, but for the two boys’ and Rani’s sake, hell, for all of their sakes, this was the only sanctuary.

  “I think we’re all just losing our minds together ... poetic, that when the world ends, we all feel the same pain.”
