Claire sat there, she had been so thrown off by what had happened between her and Didi she really didn’t take notice at first to what Nat said. Then it slowly started to set in as Dom and Feliks spoke and then Dom excused himself. Claire looked over to Feliks for a moment, with this half wouldn’t you like to know and half I am about to go Mount St. Helens on someone’s ass look on her features. Was Nat serious in inviting this dipshit into the group as if nothing had happened? Okay, well that really wasn’t bothering Claire so much. As far as Claire was concerned it was over and done with; she could care less but the way Nat was going about this was just wrong.

In Claire’s mind you didn’t spring something like this on your friends. This was just passive aggressive bullshit putting everyone on the spot like this for some little jerk like Eddie. So what if he had a bad childhood. A lot of the group had. Claire sat back in her chair thinking for a moment, trying not to pull a typical Claire but the Irish Rose wasn’t exactly known for tact and when the thought that Tas had told Claire that Eddie had not once thanked her for saving his ass that is when the shit hit the fan.

“You all can welcome this dipfuck with open arms all you want but I can’t. Sorry, trust and respect have to be earned and he has done anything but that. All he has shown is that one, he has issues beyond the rest of us and that is saying something with this group. Two, as far as I am concerned he doesn’t owe anyone an apology but Nat, so it is all good there but seriously, speak for yourself. Don’t have Momma Nat do it for you. That is just cowardly. Three, like hell I will welcome this dork if he can’t even tell Tas thank you,” Claire spat as she looked over towards Eddie.

“I know you haven’t thanked her and I know she has been by every night to see you since this all went down. So you have a long way to go before you will have a place in this group. Sure the other might say it’s all fine and dandy but they ain’t doing it for you, they are doing it for Nat. Cause you know, you do shit like that for friends. You stand up for them. You don’t pour beer on them and then go oh poor me and get a soft heart like Nat to be all momma bear for you,” Claire said as she stood up as Dom came back in and the waitress brought the fish tacos over.

“And Nat, seriously? Springing him on everyone like this. It is a good thing surprises don’t send anyone into shock, you could have killed someone. Next time you want to have everyone sit down and talk shit out, let us know upfront. Let everyone have the choice of if they are ready or not,” Claire said as she narrowed her eyes, tossing a twenty on the table to pay for the food she wasn’t going to eat before turning on her heels and storming off. She wasn’t about to give any of them a chance to say anything. She had said her piece and the group knew her well enough to know if anyone did she would end up putting them on their rearends. Claire had a temper that was for sure but sad fact of the matter was, she had a point; several of them. Granted her delivery could have been a little bit better, more thought out but Claire wasn’t a thinker she acted on her emotions. If she lost a friend for speaking the truth so be it. She would rather be hated for saying it like it was than loved for sugarcoating it.

Tas stood there with her arms crossed over her chest, what Jeje said got through to her but it didn’t tame her anger with him right then. She was livid. It was only a week ago that she had kept the cops from arresting her friends because of the brawl and had to save that POS Eddie. Now Echo was hurt and she had just told both Mr. White and Jeje to make sure she stayed calm only for them to start a verbal bashing of each other right in front of her. She wasn’t Dr. Brinne right then, she was Tas and she was ticked.

“Yeah, that is what I do. I keep people alive, no matter how I feel. I have to shove it down and lock it away to do what is best for Echo. Don’t you think when I saw her I wanted to cry? To freeze? To scream? Damn right I did but I couldn’t. If Echo saw me worried, saw me as anything but cool as ice Dr. Brinne it would have made things worse for her,” Tas started as her hands went this way and that; adding to the point she was trying to make.

“I told you both to keep her calm, I was gone all of ten minutes if that and this happens? It is one thing for a father to lose it but you Jeje? You don’t get that luxury. You are supposed to be her strength when she is hurt and damn it, if you can’t do that then you need to stay the hell away until she is stronger. You two could have killed her with her arguing! She has a tear in her lungs, deep breaths, hyperventilating like that could make it to where I have to crack her chest open and operate and then there are still no guarantees. I swear to everything that is holy and unholy, if that happens because of you two what happened to Eddie will look like a dream compared to what I do to the both of you,” Tas spat. She was livid and it showed but even with as angry as she was, she kept her voice quiet so that Echo could not hear her through the closed door. Granted that may have just made Tas seem that much more scary than if she had been screaming at the top of her lungs.

“You need help and yes I will help you. I was going to say either I help you or someone else does or I was going to just have you tossed into the psych ward until you got help. Now, you plaster on a happy face, you go in there, you tell Echo goodbye for now and that you will see her tomorrow. You are to go home, calm down and get me everything about your medical history ever. If you don’t have a psych file I want you to write down every last little thing that is wrong with you. You hear me? Cause I swear, you do anything to hurt that woman in there you’ll see a side of me that will give you nightmares,” Tas said; her last few words were a little too calm. Taking a deep breath she motioned for the door to Echos room. She had meant what she said and honestly she had had it with everything right then. Then her phone went off. It was from Claire.

To: Dr. Sis
You won’t believe this shit… Nat brought Eddie to lunch as a surprise! Wants us to welcome him into the fold! WTF!

Tas nearly chucked her phone across the hallway as she read the message. What was Nat thinking? Tas only hoped she hadn’t surprised Dom with Eddie and had at least given him ample warning, something like that could send him into a panic attack or right into cardiac arrest. The last thing any of them needed was another friend in the hospital and Tas wasn’t sure how many more episodes Dom could take.

Leaning back against the wall Tas shook her head and sent a text instead of calling Nat to explain what was up. She was not talking to anyone else right then.

To: The Scooby Gang
Brace yourself… Echo was in a car wreck, she is okay right now. You all may visit but only for ten minutes at a time, one at a time until 8 this evening. No overnight visitors. Those that cannot make it today may come by starting at 11 AM tomorrow. She needs a lot of rest and to remain calm – NO SURPRISES! DO NOT BRING EDDIE!

Hitting send Tas slipped her phone back into her pocket and rubbed her temples. Maybe she should take the job in Chicago… This was all too much and with everything else she had going on, could she really keep this pace up and not crack? Then again, could she really turn tail and leave Dom with his condition and Sam with their budding relationship?

“I can’t keep this shit up….” Tas muttered under her breath. Shaking off the anger and the worry she plastered the Dr. Brinne facade back into place and took a deep breath before she pushed the door to Echo's room open and went over to Sam, hugging him tight. At that point she really didn't care of Echo or Jeje figured out they were dating. She needed his strength and was just grateful he was there to be the shoulder she needed right then.

"Thank you for everything," she said softly as she looked up at him.

Psychology

Adaptable * Vindictive * Observant * Boisterous

Sexuality: Bi-sexual
Relationship Status: Divorced
Personality: Viv is a loud mouth, it is as simple as that. She tells people exactly what she is thinking when she thinks it and could really care less about the consequences. Perhaps not the best trait for a doctor to have but it wasn't always like that. Times change people and they have certainly changed the Doc. What was once a compassionate person bent on trying to save everyone, she has turned into a survival of the fittest. She will save members of the group when needed but she can be rather vindictive; so hope you aren't on her bad side when you need her help. She'd rather save the supplies for someone worth her time.

On the upside, Vivian is very adaptable and thinks on her feet; she will improvise what is needed to survive and come up with off the wall ways to keep going. Never one to think inside the box this has proven to be an invaluable skill in this day and age. She watches people and her surroundings carefully, always on watch; she is usually the first person to notice when something is off and she'll let the right people know is anything sets off her spidey senses.
Habits: Bites her bottom lip when concentrating; smokes when she can find cigarettes
Hobbies: People watching
Fears: 3 real fears that make your character unhinged - Other than Infection And Death

• Saving the wrong person
• Killing the wrong person
• Thunderstorms

Likes: 6 minimal

• Analyzing people
• Organizing supplies
• Finding creative ways to kill Walkers (Zombie Kill Of The Week Anyone?)
• Talking like one of the Chipmunks to annoy people
• Playing cards
• Coffee (she'd sell her soul for a constant supply of the stuff)

Dislikes: 6 minimal

• Sugar Coaters
• Rain
• Heat (So she's normally ticked from like March until November)
• Humidity (Yup, adds to the tickedness)
• Lazy People
• Pets

History

Your First Walker Encounter: Grady memorial became ground zero that day and Doc was on shift.. People were sick and there was no explanation to why. An epidemic of some sort but no information on what caused it. All the ER could do was treat the symptoms. People died, there was nothing to stop it. Then it happened, one body left behind as another patient was brought in. While many corpses where changed unknown in the morgue; this was the first in the ER.

Doc was intubating a patient when her nurse was grabbed from behind and eaten on. Panic ensued for everyone but Vivian; she was nearly mesmerized by what was happening. She didn't snap out of it until Dr. Fields drove a scalpel into the Walkers eye and it dropped. That was just the beginning of hell and Docs own personal change.

History Before Outbreak: Vivian was born the second generation of an immigrant family from Hong Kong in the small scrub desert town of Moses Lake Washington. She grew up one of the few non-Caucasian or Latino in the Potato Producing Capital of the U.S. Winters were cold, summers hot but it was dry, so it wasn't bad.

She excelled in school; spending her time either studying or interning at the MLC when she was in High School. Graduating a year early; got a full scholarship to Harvard Med and jetted out to the East Coast. (She refused to stay home and attend Big Bend Community College for two years)

Med school went fast and she graduated summa cum laude, did her residency at Massecheuttes General; specializing in Neuro Surgery. That was all fine and good but she wanted to get faster, better and more focused. She transferred to Grady Memorial in Atlanta at 33 to work in their Trauma 1 unit under a 3 year contract.

The heat and humidity made her regret the decision but a contract was a contract; she stuck it out. Over the next two years she thrived in the ER but was looking forward to the completion of her contract so she could take a job at Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. That was until the break out; there goes snowy winters.

History Since Outbreak:
The first fee weeks after the outbreak were horrid but all you could do was fight or run; and hope you didn't die. Evac was ordered and Vivian took to the roof with a critical patient. That was where she met Leann, the only pilot left at Dobbins willing to land in downtown Atlanta.

During the Evac, the patient went past the point of no return. Before he died Vivian put a scalpel into his brain and shoved the body out of the helicopter to crash into 75/85 below. She didn't even flinch, to her it was them or him. The once caring driven doctor had changed and it only got worse from there.

Over the next year's she and LeAnn, along with a group of others kept moving. Losing many, gaining more. This was life now and while she wasn't good in fighting the Walkers, she was invaluable with keeping the group going. Though her cruel survival of the fittest streak grew and a vindictive nature set in after she ended up saving a farmer in Tennessee, only to have him turn on the group. Now she takes no choices.

When the group settled in Newnan, Vivian was put in charge of medical; rightly so but she is watched closely. LeAnn worries she may pass a point of no return soon if something doesn't change but right now Vivian is the best medical personnel they have; so it is better the devil you know than none at all.

Newnan Group

⚜/☮ Leann McCormick ☮/⚜

"She gets it."
Vivian likes Leanna, plain and simple but you might not know if from the way she acts; granted she acts the same towards most, so it is hard to tell. Yet inside she actually looks to Leann as a friend, her only one in this day and age. She will let Leann know the moment something seems off. Leann seems to under Viv's attitude towards killing and hasn't stopped her yet but she knows the day will come.

⚜ Ashton Holloway ⚜

"He gets the job done, sometimes."
Viv doesn't talk to Ash but she watches him, always watching. Leann is the only one in the group she wouldn't kill, so she is careful to keep an eye on the man that the Bitch in Charge calls her second. She doesn't really have a problem with him but she doesn't exactly trust him. Least he makes sure she stays stocked in the supplies she needs.

☯ Siddharth Kumar ☯

"He tends to the garden and doesn't steal."
Viv has to deal with Sid a little more than the kid probably likes since he needs to tend to the medical garden and keeping plants alive isn't really in the Docs list of abilities. She doesn't say much to him beyond the occasional thanks.

☯ Meghna Kumar ☯

"Try watching and listening instead of talking."
Though Viv doesn't hate Meg, Meg annoys the hell out of Vivian. All her questions to Leann all the time drives Viv up the wall; especially when she is trying to talk to Leann about things and Meg pipes in. Usually a quick look of "shut the fuck up" from Viv will do that but only for a short time.

☯ James Grady ☯

"He is fun to screw with."
Vivian takes way to much delight in weirding James out. He tried hitting on her and she will flirt back from time to time and then to throw him off she will end up saying off. Like asking a child if they want to see a dead body with a heart that still beats. She enjoys making his skin crawl in more ways that one.

⚜ Maria Smith ⚜

"She knows where I am if she needs me."
Believe it or not, Viv respects the hell out of Maria though like with most things she won't let it show. The girl knows how to get the job done and Viv appreciates that. There are things the Doc can't get done for the group and having Maria around helps take some of the strain off Leann, so Maria isn't on her hit list - yet.

§/☠ Alicia Gonzalez ☠/§

"Like it or not, I will eventually gut that bitch if she doesn't stop giving me the stink eye."

Alicia rubbed Vivian the wrong way from day one but unfortunately she hasn't had the chance to "repay" the favor as of yet. Alicia is good at keeping from getting injured and anytime she does, Caesar steps in. The air is tense when they are around each other in front of Caesar but when he isn't around, it is just a matter of time before Vivian tries something. As far as she is concerned, they only need one Gonzalez in the group to get the job done.

☮ Caesar Gonzalez ☮

"He has issues, I have issues. It works."
Doc and Machete seem to be two sides of the same coin. Both have issues the others can't begin to comprehend. Caesar is more violent than Vivian, but she has far less ethics than he has. They work, for now. Only time will tell if they even each other the fuck out or push each other to some where unholy.

@Sigil Omg, that theme song.... I don't know whether to laugh or cry.... either way, there's a special place in hell reserved for you for exposing us to that... one next to child molesters and people who talk in a theater.

Growing Up | It's Anything But Simple

@ChaoticFox I don't know what is going to be worse as in the tear someone a new one - Tas speaking with Jeje, or Claire snapping on Nat and Eddie. (Man, all I can say is it is good Tas is not at the restaurant, what she would spew right now would probably crush half the group right then and there. Lol)
