Trailers and thangs

[ricked]

I know.

Wasn't supposed to be like this.

He ain't gonna get away with it. I'll make sure he pays for everything.

It's my fault. Shouldn't've left. Shoulda killed that asshole when I had the chance, too.

[ricked]

It ain't on you. People like him... [ He clenches a fist. It takes a lot for him not to loose his temper just thinking about him. ] He'll get what's coming.

[dirtyredneck]

We lose someone. That's on me.

[If it was Michonne, Glenn, or Rosita, then doubly so. They'd only left to find him. Wouldn't have been there otherwise.]

He'll get what he deserves, ain't saying that. But... I know what's mine.

[No, he doesn't. He assumes everything is on him.]

[notaafraidanymore]

(She's already well past defeated and with that she just sucks in a breath before she shakes her head)

This is what I was talking about...

[ricked]

Couldn't have known. You can't go blaming yourself. Not now.

[ It wasn't like he wasn't there before. Part of him blamed himself too for all of this. Maybe there was something he missed, maybe there was something else they could have done. All those traps along the way? Maybe he should have seen that coming too. But now... ]

We're gonna get through this. [ Had to. ]

❤

[ricked]

Carol... don't.

[ He wants to shake his head. Tell her it would've been different. But he can't. His head lowers not having the words to say. How can he? ]

HOLDS!

[notaafraidanymore]

Don't tell me to don't..

(She says lowly before she shakes her head and moves to wrap her arms around herself)

Its never gonna end.

[dirtyredneck]

Not all'a us.

[Sorry, Rick. He's in one of those defeatist moods he gets in.]

[ricked]

[ He looks down, away, and silent. He knew Daryl was right. Didn't matter what he said. There was no changing what was coming. ]

I know.

That guy, Negan... He's gonna pay.

[ That much he was sure of. One way or another, this wouldn't go unpunished and unavenged. ]

[ricked]

I wish I could tell you differently [ a pause. ] but I can't. We go on survivin' though. Even if...

[ The situation seemed pretty hopeless as it was. No matter the outcome, they loose someone and he couldn't do a damn thing about it. It takes a moment for him to regain his composure. ]

No matter what happens. Have to.

[notaafraidanymore]

(She's silent for a good long moment. Her thoughts scattering along in her ever so rushing and broken mind. She knows he's seen her both broken and defeated but this time it was different.

She was lost and broken in so many different ways this time and even worse they were seperated)

What's so wrong about wanting to die, being ok with it?

(She shakes her head, eyes going a bit classy)

You can be free that way..

ugh my heart

[ricked]

[ The silence is deafening. He knows that look and can only imagine what she must be thinking at that moment, but it wasn't the silence that got him the most. Carol's words struck a nerve. He was there before. Questioned the same thing in the past, but he was a different man than he was then. He wanted to comfort it, but he knew he couldn't. ]

We survive so the ones who died go on living through us. If we all just gave up, their deaths would all be in vain.

It ain't okay.

carol is broken :(

[notaafraidanymore]

(Most of them had been in this kind of mind set at some given point,right? Or maybe some were just a lot more broken than others? Deep down Carol knew she couldn't fix or forget what she had done, the people she had killed.

They haunted her every second of every day and it just wouldn't stop, wouldn't go away. )

Lot of things ain't okay..

(She was far from it)

holds forever

[ricked]

...I know.

[ He finally admits it out loud. He's defeated to say the least; breaking, almost. ]

I'm gonna make it okay. Gonna make them pay for everything. Gonna keep surviving so that... [ He chokes a bit on his words trying to swallow the lump in his throat. ]

It ain't over. Not for me, not for you. Don't you quit on me, Carol.

snuzzles

[notaafraidanymore]

(She goes silent once again. She doesn't know the situation Rick and the others are in but her but has told her It's not a very good one, not that she was in the best either)

I can't Rick. (She admits lowly,the heart ache dancing along her tongue)

I just can't. I can't do this anymore, any of it. I can't protect you, can't protect the others.

Not anymore...

[dirtyredneck]

Dwight's gotta, too. He's the one I... I let live. He's the reason we got caught.

[And Daryl's choice to let him and his girl go, that was the reason Denise died.]
