Jump scares? After everything we've been through, that's what gets you?

It's okay, just put it down for the night. The game will still be there in the morning.

It's not horror games, seems like she's fine most of it as long as there's no sudden noises.

Don't really get it, a game's a game and you can shut it off. Not like you're actually in danger.

[Wait, he speaks zombie? Heck yes, time to groan some more about PSYCHOLOGY. She shuffles back just a smidgen, though. She sees that gun.]

{The human brain has yet to adept to the idea of simulated danger versus real danger, and so, if it comes across a situation that would (outside of fiction) result in a flight-or-fight response, it continue to reacts in that manner. Of course, this is not the case with all peoples, but the variable in that is a person's respective fears.}

[It was either 'speak zombie by musebox handwave autotranslation' or 'shoot you dead without a second thought', and since the mun really would rather him not shoot at other people's characters...]

Huh.

Explains why movies don't scare me anymore.

[Movies. Like... zombie movies?]

{I do not suppose you mean survival horrors yourself, would you?}

Nah, kinda... lost my taste for them. But the real gory horror movies, the ones that used to bug me don't anymore.

Not that I set out to watch them, Cujo was more than enough.
