day 297, open video.
[Here's Percy looking pale and a bit... off. It's been a rough morning. One minute he's falling asleep in prison, then the next minute he's fighting the goddess of victory (and nearly dying), and then fighting Polybotes (and nearly dying again), before waking up in prison, right where he'd left off. But there was no way it had just been a dream.

When he speaks, his voice is hoarse like he'd been through a nasty coughing fit. The poison Polybotes had used against him hadn't been a joke and the experience was still fresh in his mind. Just thinking about it was enough to nearly send Percy back to choking and gagging.]

Okay, woke up confused and in pain. [A slight wince as he puts a hand against his throat as if that'll help.] I seriously don't know what's going on right now. Kind of having trouble figuring things out and my memories are all over the place.

[Nothing new for him.]

I'm, like, a decent percent sure that I'm not dying, at least. I mean, I could be wrong, but I sure hope not. I'd hate to die in this thing.

[Ah, yes. The dreaded orange jumpsuit is back.] Nico, we might need a sequel to that first shopping trip we had.

	I don't know about that... [He spends a lot of time wearing an orange camp shirt.] I'm Percy, by the way. I don't think we met the first time I was around. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[To be fair though, he comes from a world where it is better to not stand out anywhere. It hasn't been tested, but he thinks bright colors would probably make it harder to get away] Carl. You were here before? And left? Did you go back home? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Explaining is hard when he doesn't understand it himself.] Apparently, I did. I do have new memories of back home or whatever but... I don't really remember leaving or coming back. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What? That... that doesn't make any sense. I don't understand how that could work. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Tell me about it. If you want a way out to get back home, I'm the wrong guy to ask. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	anothermonster 2014-11-13 02:37 am UTC (link)
	I'll keep that mind. I wouldn't mind going home, but I probably shouldn't be in too much of hurry either. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tunapiano 2014-11-13 03:34 am UTC (link)
	Yeah? Is there something you're not looking forward to? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	My world is filled with walkers... zombies. We're just trying to survive. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[What.] You've got a zombie apocalypse?! [Holy cow, that's like a movie/video game thing!] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	anothermonster 2014-11-15 01:50 am UTC (link)
	We do. It's been over a year since it started. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Dude, that's... that's something straight out of a horror movie. Are you going to be okay? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	anothermonster 2014-11-17 01:11 am UTC (link)
	Here? Probably. There? I can only hope so. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tunapiano 2014-11-17 09:08 pm UTC (link)
	Well, if you've managed to survive for over a year... [Shakes his head.] Is there anyone back in your world trying to, I don't know, fix it? [He's not a zombie apocalypse expert but didn't these things usually end with a cure?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	anothermonster 2014-11-17 11:25 pm UTC (link)
	I have no idea if anyone is trying to. We've been pretty cut off from major cities. Atlanta is pretty much dead. Most I know is the CDC there was trying, but the doctor didn't have much else he could do. He said the branch in Paris had been too... but then he lost contact with them.

	That's rough... It really might be better for you to stay here, then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	anothermonster 2014-11-19 12:14 am UTC (link)
	Yeah... it might. I'd just like to know my father and my sister are okay... and all of the others. We got separated from them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tunapiano 2014-11-19 06:57 am UTC (link)
	I wish I could help you, man. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	anothermonster 2014-11-20 12:21 am UTC (link)
	Don't worry about it. It's not like it's anything you have control over. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tunapiano 2014-11-20 09:14 am UTC (link)
	[He's SO BAD AT THIS.] Guess so... Still, good luck with everything. We should hang one of these days. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	anothermonster 2014-11-21 12:13 am UTC (link)
	[And Carl is so bad at accepting something like that because he knows he can't help] Thanks. Yeah, we should. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tunapiano 2014-11-24 06:16 pm UTC (link)
	[Manages a small smile.] See you around, okay? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	anothermonster 2014-11-25 03:12 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, see you around. [And he'll end the feed there] (Reply to this) (Parent)
