Chapter 44-3: Life and Death

[Footbutt]

are Michael and Victor going to carry Datu's body out of there?
He dug his own grave, for goodness sake, and i wonder if Michael will honor his further, unspoken request. Datu dug the graves (Jay's, Glenn's, and his own) deep so nothing could come and dig him up, so he's already got a plot for himself.

i can see a burial scene where Lizzy is buried next to Angel's grave, then they all get the impact of two deaths, their causes, and a need for redemption/vendetta.

having the first and only baby in a world of death and decay with lotsa zombs around ... Why would someone more of a sadist than the author?
It turns out that currently we have just a handful of survivors available. And these are far less than what would be the least amount of people required to uphold a gene-pool of diversity. And with only one infant and none other so far on the radar it is hard to imagine that there would be a subsequent generation of humans striving for survival.

That we know of! There’s a whole lot of world left aside from LA. Hell, the zombies could already have people farms set up to create more pure ones by this point!

You have to give Gnex time to grieve. It the first time he has to get over the fact that CJ did something and can't blame her for the outcome.

He still in his 5 stages.

Given that CJ gave the go ahead to start dismantling the colony one could make the argument that she is responsible. Had they continued to stay at the colony, Tanya’s supplies wouldn’t have been depleted to the level they were and a trip to Cain might not have been necessary. In fact, extra supply runs could have been made by the colonists to prepare for exactly this sort of situation if CJ hadn’t kicked Saul out of the colony in the first place.

Moral of the story: You can always blame CJ!

As for predictions, I’m just going to second everything TacticalJHP said in post 257. It sounds as plausible as anything else I can think of.

Oh man, you forgot the point that Micheal was the one who told Tanya to allow the supply to go. ;-) But in honesty, I don't think they was taking those large item from the colony, I don't even think they would had them to begin with.

Nice try but Michael wasn't in charge! CJ was queen of the castle and is ultimately responsible for those decisions. Mhmm. ... You can't make me change my mind!

I know they probably didn't originally have them but if all of the people at the colony were still together it doesn't seem unreasonable that getting those sorts of things for colony use would have been a reasonable step!

Well, sort of. The colony was too far at that point.

If you're going to blame ANYONE for this whole thing, you have to go back much further than CJ. It can all be traced back to the moment when Burt unzipped his pants, and showed Scratch that his dick was bigger when he shot out the side mirror of the rig in chapter 6 (?). If that hadn't happened, Scratch would likely not have found the Tower, and Pegs wouldn't have shot Latch causing all the non-zombie chaos and forcing the residents of the Tower to be scattered.

There's just no arguing that logic.

Well there goes that idea. Bah. Regardless, it was still CJ's fault! Somehow.

I like this. Good point Osiris!

You know.... All this talk of who's th blame for Lizzy's death would make a great song...

I'm just saying that the musicals Titanic & Into the Woods pulled it off.....

Sadly, they won't. Datu won't want them to endanger their life just to carry his body out. Unless they find a car/truck quickly, they have a really long walk to the colony or the original tower.

[Merlin1274]

I can see them maybe stashing and trying to come back if they can. But I agree, long walk carrying a body.
