I just read both piece for The Cost of Staying Alive and I am obsessed!!!! I wanna know how the reader came to be separated from the group? I cannot imagine surging an apocalypse by myself for TWO YEARS!!! She is much stronger than me 😔 How’d she do it? Has the gang thought she was dead this whole time? I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS!!! Much love to you, you wonderful genius of a woman 🖤
I’m quite literally giggling reading this, you have no idea how excited for this I am!!! Thank you so much for reading it!!
Why and how she got separated ties into the next part, but a large reason for why SHE got separated comes back to her and the accidental catalyst of this whole event: Dustin.
The group is a little split on whether she is dead or not. The more practical thinkers definitely think so-and the reason why makes a little more sense in the next part. However, Steve and quite a few of the others don’t think so, which leads to a lot of arguments of course.
A lot of her survival has been due to brain power and the fact that they had all been attacked by the Upside Down for a long time before this. A lot of the game plan since the separation hasn’t been to kill the creatures, but to get away. She is fresh out of the means to actually kill them, which is how she ended up losing this fight.
I’m genuinely so excited for this, you have no idea! I’m still very new to putting actual words out and not just graphics, so it’s a little nerve wrecking, but I think doing it in a much smaller format gives a way better look into everything 😭😂
Enough of me rambling! Thank you so much for reading! Hopefully I answered everything and if I couldn’t, hopefully the next upload will! LITERALLY SO OBSESSED WITH YOU OMG💙💙
