Endtown by Aaron Neathery for September 21, 2015

It’s just plastic anyway, Holly. Time to move on…FAST!!

Hop Chick is a good runner. He’ll be a chicken steak sandwich if he isn’t.

And Kirbee is off to the rescue again.

Want to take back your words yet, Holly?

sigh What part of SHUT UP don’t you understand, Holly? At least Flask knew how to be quiet when it was appropriate.

Guess the dittoes don’t consider Clive as part of the group, either?

Why is she yelling? She knows Clive has no senses when powered down.

I mean really, what more could they do to him? ;-)

More to the point, Clive would probably be better off with the TS who could give him a shiny new PT to drive around in. All Holly and company can do is carry him around.

So Chick wiggled free and is running toward..Clive? To save him for Holly? Irving is still by Kirby. Wally tried to catch Chick but fell, and Holly is looking.. hopeful?

Has everyone in the group gone insane? Tune in Wednesday to find out.

Holly: “Dingos are eating my baby!”

dittoes to the rescue…I hope

Mutts have Zero projectors in their sensor plates, don’t they? Chick running up to make a grab on Clive now that they’ve got it in their sights… isn’t good.

no one here is very good at surface survival, I mean seriously we have a ditzy lizard who was tricked into going on snipe hunts, a kid, a girl who has lived as a waitress for several years in an isolated little colony of safeness, and a disembodied head…I don’t think even kitty MacGuyver can help these 4 for long…

Oh, good job, Holly. If Chick gets grabbed, you have only yourself to blame.

I basically feel sorry for Holly; her values and behavior would have been admirable pre-apocalypse, but now they need to be tempered with a bit more common sense… and awareness of this not being all about her and her concerns any more. In her own way, she’s pretty selfish (like Sarah), but not, unfortunately, in a way that lends itself to survival.

Some one is going to die.I am going to miss Kirbee.

Quixotic rescue mission? I’m interested…

Holly lost her baby. She found a surrogate in Clive.She won’t shut up about Clive. Someone has to make her shut up. Aside from killing her or knocking her out, the only way to shut her up is rescue Clive. Chic is off to shut Holly up.I don’t know if the similarity is intentional or subconscious of Aaron or a coincidence, but I’m reminded of a scene in M*A*S*H where Hawkeye was describing an incident where he was on a truck transporting hidden refugees and enemy soldiers had stopped it. One of the passengers had a chicken that was making too much noise and Hawkeye pled with the woman to keep the chicken quiet or they’d be discovered. He demanded she silence the chicken and she did by killing it, and they escaped. Except that Hawkeye was telling the story to a psychiatrist who was helping him accept that the chicken was actually a baby.Wally is demanding that Holly shut up and lose her baby. He hasn’t accepted yet that Clive is a person, not an expendable thing.Kirbee is chasing after Chic to either help him save Clive or to keep him from risking his life. She is risking her life, and because she wasn’t in the scene in the Green with Wally, Holly, and Chic, it seems she may not survive this.

It’s not too late – start a petition – “SAVE KIRBEE”.

We’ve been talking a good deal about Wally and his two women, Kirbee and Holly…but what about Holly and her two men, Wally and Clive?

Sorry Bill…..Its happened before.RIP Spike…..first death in the Milk Riots.

Again I sense a hand in this. Something is messing with them. Maybe the same thing that messed with Jim in his schism.Some one is stealing all the shoes.

Well, Aaron has never been afraid to harm or kill someone if he felt that it made for a better story. I could see something happening to Kirbee. Maybe the mutts will drag her off and we find her later piloting a PT or possibly something else.

Uh-oh. I have a bad feeling about this…
