Jack Hudson
Location: Building F (The Newnans' House)
Jack wasn't sure exactly why it was pertinent exactly what he had heard Dick say, but he wasn't going to argue with Tatiana about it. To him, he heard a voice from a dead asshole and that was that. It was time for him to be put in some sort of isolation where they kept the crazies. He didn't know practically anything about psychology--most of what he knew was just from watching other people lose their grip over the years. Death tended to mess with your head. That was about it.
"Dick said...The voice said that Ash was lost. Asked how I was gonna keep you safe, gonna keep Newnan safe from Eden. Called us Mistah and Misses Cleavah," Jack summarized. It felt a bit awkward to talk about this, while Ray was simultaneously talking about his feelings of being a burden. Ray had concrete reasons for these sort of psychological issues. But Jack, Jack felt a little bit ashamed. Maybe it was his old days as a cop, but back then, people didn't always talk about these sort of issues. They were kept quiet. At least Dick's voice seemed to be doing the same. He hadn't heard him since that first time. Maybe that was a good sign.
Beatrice Decker
Location: Near 545 Corinth Rd, Newnan: In the woods. (Not far from the Coweta County Water Authority)
Beatrice was feeling a bit irked with Gavin. Yeah, she had seen him up there taking stock, but James was right--he never said anything about it. For all Beatrice knew, he was only about halfway done with it and stopped once the phone call happened. But at any rate, it was busy work. She was feeling a bit more exasperated with these people with each passing second, but she also had no intention of going back to Newnan. If she split off from the group, then she'd make her way north some, see what happens. She hadn't been looking for Newnan in the first place and it had turned up. There were two settlements in this area at least. She'd find another if she wanted to.
However, Beatrice paused in her tracks as she heard the plan. Gavin and James wanted to take down Eden singlehandedly? She chuckled a bit at the thought. There were four of them. They'd need a small army and a tank to even have a chance against Eden. Even if they managed to hurt Eden, Eden'd just end up hurting Newnan back. They'd regain their strength. Groups like that, it wasn't enough to attack them from the outside. They usually had to end up crumbling from within as well in order to actually become just a memory.
"I hadn't intended on dying today or tomorrow or the next day," Beatrice mused, before getting herself ready and climbing into the truck after James.
"But I suppose dying with you assholes is as good a way to go as any." She was certain they'd all be dead in a week.
Chloe & Ravi
Location: Building One (Medical) ---> Building 6 (the Armory)
Chloe noticed the way Niesha was gritting her teeth. Yeah, that
definitely convinced her that Niesha was emotionally stable enough to go on a run. She reminded her of the girls who pretended they weren't going through detox in prison, only to end up thrown in solitary a few days later with additional time put on their sentence for using. They were always so prideful, attempting to save face. Ravi was clueless as to the relationship dynamics here, practically awkwardly standing by as glances were thrown at one another. He felt a bit relieved when Froggy suggested that Chloe, the other red head, take him to the armory to get a knife.
A knife that he wouldn't be using--but that wasn't something he needed to mention. He had managed to avoid taking a life for four years. One little run outside the walls of Newnan wasn't going to force him to face his fear. He had hardly spent any time in Newnan to begin with. He was still accustomed to surviving out there.
"Come on, governor," Chloe said, nodding a bit at Froggy before heading out.
"Let's go already." It was a brisk walk across the street and through a parking lot, one that consisted primarily of an awkward conversation between the two. Chloe didn't know much about Ravi beyond his accent and Ravi didn't know much about her, beyond the fact that she was supposedly an expert at finding veins. Either she used to be a pro at drawing blood before or she was an addict, he figured. It wasn't entirely uncommon for medical professionals--they had access to a fair deal of drugs.
"I'm Ravi," Ravi said, as a way of introducing himself.
"I know," Chloe replied, about two paces ahead of him.
"I was a medical examiner," Ravi then added, smiling awkwardly at the ginger.
Chloe stopped for a moment, raising an eyebrow at him.
"Again, I knew that already." Ravi awkwardly rubbed the back of his head, as Chloe started to walk briskly once more towards the armory. She definitely had an attitude to her, that was for sure. She probably had some bad blood with Niesha, Ravi figured. It'd explain a lot of what had happened after Miss Sally died. However, he couldn't also help but notice that she was rather pretty.
"So what did you do?" Ravi asked, attempting to get to know her.
"Crime."
