Warning for triggers of violence and death.

i . INFECTION.

• 1. YOU ARE INFECTED. It could be days, hours, or even minutes before you turn. Do you keep it to yourself and pray for a cure? Or do you hand your weapon over and trust your friend to put you down before you can hurt anyone?
• 2. YOU KNOW. At least, you're pretty sure. They've been getting thinner, weaker, and the temperature that they're running can't be good. How do you proceed?
• 3. THEY'RE STILL HUMAN. These zombies are still people, you're the only one that sees it.
• 4. IT'S YOU OR ME. There's no way the two of you can get out of here alive. Are you a good enough friend to let them go, or are you the sort to ensure that you only have to outrun them?
• 5. ABOMINATION. You've handled everything you've come across so far, but this is just wrong. Be it a baby, an animal, or a horrific mutation that grants it special powers—this one is throwing you for a loop.
• 6. NOT YOU. You recognize that one. Maybe it's a family member, a close friend, a lover, or a co-worker - you know who they are. Do you have the strength to do what needs to be done?

ii . SUPPLIES.

• 1. NOTHING LEFT. You're running out of almost everything. You've only got enough to feed one person now. Do you give it up, or are you ready to kill so that you may survive?
• 2. FOOD RUN. You and your buddy are all that stands between your group and cannibalism. Better hop to it.
• 3. ROTTEN. It's sat out too long and now everything is bad. You might have eaten it before you realized how rotten it was and now you're paying the price.
• 4. STOCKED. You found the ideal hideout and you want for nothing.

iii. YOU AGAINST THE WORLD

• 1. YOU'VE GOT A PLAN. You can protect your team, but it might cost you your life.
• 2. IMPROVISED WEAPONRY. They're closing in and you've got to think fast.
• 3. MUTINY. You're tired of their authority. You can do a better job.
• 4. ESCAPE. That city was getting too full, you've hotwired and tricked out a vehicle and now you're getting the hell out of dodge. Any zombie causalities are completely intentional.
• 5. SURROUNDED. Your safe space isn't so safe. They're on all sides of you and you're starting to run out of ammo.
• 6. NEVER ENDING ROAD TRIP. You've been in this car for ages, everyone is getting tired, and you're not sure where a safe rest stop is.
• 7. YOU WERE IN ON IT. You're safe in the head office of EVIL INC. and nothing can go wrong. Unless that clumsy scientist knocks that vial over, or unless one of your co-workers goes mad with the guilt. Or maybe you didn't know what you were getting into, maybe you've switched sides and you two aim to fix this mess.
• 8. ONLY ONES LEFT. Everyone else is dead. You're all that's left in the world. Where do you go from here?

iv. WILDCARD.

]Pascal gives a lazy salute, swaying with the movement. Then again she's never actually standing still.] Okee doke. Remember, your sword cuts through all! Enter the Amazing Pascal!

[And just like that she kicks open the door leading downstairs and forgoes the stairs completely, jumping down into the darkness.

After a moment, at least, a fire appears down in the distance from the top of her staff, even though Pascal herself appears to be in a pile on the floor. That's what she gets for jumping.]

[akisazame]

That's my line.

[Don't steal things from him, Pascal. With a long-suffering sigh he follows after her, hand hovering over his sword's hilt out of practiced familiarity as he stops in the doorway.

That sounds like a painful crash. It elicits a sympathetic wince from Guy. Taking a few steps down, he stares at the fallen girl. It's too bad that he's useless in situations like this.]

Damn, that was a big fall. You all right?

[cartashark]

[Pascal rubs the top of her head with a groan and shakily gets to her feet.]

Owwwww. This would have been the perfect time to ask Sophie to kiss it all better! Totally a huge missed opportunity for the cute lovey-dovey moment, am I right?

[akisazame]

[Her suggestion's met with a polite laugh as he carefully makes his way down. He stops halfway, waiting for her to gather her bearings.]

I dunno. Maybe it's better that Sophie didn't come along.

[cartashark]

[Pascal stretches out one arm, at least keeping the other steady for light.]

Huh, denying a young woman her kiss moment? That's pretty cold of you.

[She waves it off.]

So anyway I haven't been down here before but it's pretty narrow! Spooky. But don't worry, I ain't gonna touch you. You want me to go ahead or follow up behind? [To herself:] Oh man that sounds so cool and mission-y...
