Lmaooo he doesn't have Paris around to influence his decisions this time, it's all cool. He won't try to chop off any limbs unless necessary I swear! He still gonna go semi-mad doctor in the future tho
OttoWin was great like two tall dads ftw?? But on the very first thread, OttoMel was awesome because it's basically 'small X tall'???? Honestly just, regardless of ships everyone is so wholesome and I love these characters????????
YES????
Someone: I'm hungry
Winston: Hi huNgry I'm dAd
Ev: wHo namEs their kid hunGry???
And god forbid that Otto gets in on the dad jokes too the whole squad would be groaning in exasperation.
Irrelevant but to be completely honest I might switch Ev to bi in this thread cause all these hot guys looking fine asf and I like to project my bi disaster energies on every character ever. Would that be weird at all since he was a hetero dude in the last two threads? But really if Otto can go from twice bi to hetero then Ev can go from twice hetero to bi fight me
Ev will protect smol Fordwin don't worry Shatter. However as a fellow clumsy boy, he'll probably trip on his way to save Fordwin from tripping.
These disasters.
AND IM BORDERLINE MAD DOCTOR--
I approve of Ev being called Doc or Trippy so much you have no idea.
Oh yeah no, Ev became bi the second I mentioned it *cries in I'm an actual disaster*
Personally I think Winston being anorexic was an interesting development. An eating disorder in the apocalypse sounds like potential for woo drama but thats just me. And oh boy I do love drama.
Oh yes, Ev is def big spoon husbando and will most certainly trip all over the damn place trying to save Winston. Otto as well. And Fordwin. Probably Ruby too. Honestly he's just the living embodiment of the 'Heroic Idiot' trope.
Also no, Mia is not a vermin exterminator. She has no useful qualities at all. She's lazy and prissy and probably hates everything but Ev loves her anyways.

Order into chaos, hell on earth, horror made reality. So many different ways to describe the absolute disaster going on in the school right now. It all starts normal enough, sitting in a classroom and listening to his homeroom teacher jabber on about geometry, waiting to be released so he can go home with the rest of his classmates. But Evengaline knows there is something wrong when a teacher of all people starts banging on the door screaming at the top of his lungs. He's covered in blood and there's a gaping, bloody hole in his neck like he'd been attacked by a wild animal. Nobody moves, even the homeroom teacher has gone silent at the sight. The man at the door suddenly pauses. Stating with blank eyes, dead eyes, into the door window. Slowly, the door handle starts to turn and there's a metallic click. The man bursts in. Witness to the attack, the bloodshed, the death. The second the man sprints towards the homeroom teacher and digs his teeth into soft flesh of their face is the exact second that Ev shoulders his backpack, shoots up, and breaks for the door. The situation in the hall is much more dire than what he just witnessed in the classroom.
Adrenaline pumps quickly through his veins, the fight or flight response kicks in and now all he can think about is his self-preservation. Not keen on just standing around waiting to be attacked, Ev brushes by his fellows and starts hoofing it towards the nearest exit. Others run like chickens with their heads cut off, but he knows better and God he wishes he could help but he can't! Keep calm, keep calm. None of this real. Just keep running. The end of the hallway is in sight, if he can just make it down the stairs and out the main doors!
As the boy nears the stairwell, a literal horde of those monsters not fit to be called his friends or educators anymore round the corner to cut him off abruptly, "Oh sh-" Evengaline skids and stumbles to a halt, turning on his heels and running in the opposite direction. What to do, what to do. Where to go, how to escape. Oh God he's hyperventilating, keep calm now. It's not real. With all exits cut off, students and teachers dropping like flies. All he can do is tell himself not to panic. Suddenly, a voice throws him a rope to save himself with. Go to the gymnasium. Here's to hoping he can make it there before getting devoured.
Evengaline's long legs work into overdrive, putting on a burst of speed that is just enough to carry him through the worst of the hallway massacre and his broad frame bulldozes through the rest somehow. He doesn't stop to draw breath or give his body a rest, only runs as fast as his legs can carry him to follow after two other boys also running in the same direction. Just as the gym's untouched doors come into view, a familiar voice rings in his ears and he skids on his heels fast enough to nearly knock his broad frame off balance as he pivots around. Green eyes watch the skinny redhead go down hard in to a puddle of crimson seeping across the floor, recognizes the pomsky he holds on to like a lifeline, and Ev barely even thinks. He just acts, pushing off again and sprinting towards the other boy, "Winston!" The usually quiet med student yells over the screaming, deep earthy tones reverberating around the hall, "Get up and come on!"
But clearly the skinnier boy is having trouble rising with all the blood underfoot. Blood that he too inevitably spills down in to. Tripping over what he can only assume is a mostly devoured corpse of some poor girl with her head smashed in and her brain splattered on the floor, the boy stumbles and slips on the red wetness underfoot. He spills unceremoniously onto the floor next to Winston, hitting his head audibly on the tile floor and sliding in the pool of blood left by the dead body. Smearing his entire left side with it; his shirt, pants, and oh God it's on his face. His hands scrabble against the floor, wetting his palms and clogging his nose with the iron scent of blood, "Winston," Ev groans, reaching to grab the other boy's hand and scrabbling to pull both of their weight up again.

THIS IS IT
THE APOCALYPSE
Winston: *slips in blood puddle*
Ev: YEEHAW ILL SAVE YOU
Also Ev: *trips over dead body*
can ev and liu become friends
Actually just genderswapped Ev's cat and changed the breed cause we have so many female pets and sphinx cats rule so pet baby kittens are a possibility??
Ev is just gonna be in a weird calm state of denial after falling facefirst through the gym doors and fully believe that nothing is real then a few minutes later the panic is probably going to start setting in. Just go from "it's okay Winnie, it's not real, this is fine because I'm just dreaming" to "oh my F-ing goD WINSTON THIS IS REAL LIFE!?!?!?"
Nifty can you link me to this AI dungeon thing because-
But also poor Winston though? Just a tall skinny boy absolutely splattered in blood having to deal with Ev's panic attack in top of his own. And then poor Luna the sweet pomsky uggggh. These characters hurt my heart.
Y a y! Liu looks like a very interesting guy and the fact that he's got mom energies and Ev is the resident nurse dad they'd be a weird friend duo. Osiris will also love Ripley just because she's so huge and fluffy and Osiris gets cold easy cause he's a hairless breed.
Yes please, Vienna can definitely dress Osiris up and make him warm and toasty.
Lunae that character ramble is beautiful? I love reading about the characters and how they will develop reeee.
Dude everyone has their character's whole story arc figured out and I'm just like "eat hot chip and die"
Mood-
Yessss parent friends. But yes please teach Ev to cook so he can be a good big spoon husbando and make actual good food for Winston. He can't cook like at all. Osiris will totally snuggle and go on adventures with Ripley haha.
"Don't amputate my leg"
*Intense Paris and EV flashbacks*
But the second Winston mentions he's nauseous Ev will literally force himself to get a grip just so Winston doesn't throw up. Or at least he'll try to stop freaking out, probably still cry a bit because he just saw dead people eating his friends, but like he'll just be trying his best so Winston can calm down and not throw up. I promise his future freak outs won't be as bad (he's supposed to be decently good at keeping calm and putting a cap on his emotions) as the first 'holy shit this is the zombie apocalypse and dead people are killing and eating everyone' panic he'll have in the gym.
Honestly all these characters give me life. This is a nice group.
I thought Ev was the only med student rip
Between Winston crying and Ruby and Ness protesting, Ev is gonna be having an actual moral dilemma on his hands. Just a stressed disaster warring over "do not amputate the leg and hope that bites don't turn you" or "do amputate the leg and hope Winston doesn't die from bloodloss" because Winnie getting bit is probably gonna be the group's first real encounter with zombie bites and they likely won't yet know that the bites don't turn you.
Omfg yes I remember the Yakety Sax mad doctors chase, that was great.
Catto gang, I dig it. Shiloh, Ripley, and Osiris just chillin. Nana, Peaches, and Cream just chillin. Sarge, Luna, Daisy, Charlie, and Elliot just chillin. We have a lot of dogs lol. But hey at least theres no pet issues like in the last thread. That gave me stress headaches imagining the pets dying.
WoaH wait what about Pepper, Vienna's ferret? Maybe she can hang out with the cats?
About having a sort of post order, I have no opinion so whatever you guys decide on that I'll be on board!
Double post yeah bois. Nana in the cat gang, hell yeah. Also Crepe I just noticed your pfp and I now want pancakes-
I can confidently say as someone who has previously been in multiple threads with at least 7/10 people in this group and the fact that we are all actually discussing this issue and how to deal with it, that ghosting is a a very low probability. Just wanted to toss this out there because you all seem like good people to be in a group roleplay with.
Dittoing lunae though, I think the order we have our intros in once all of them are up would be a good posting order.
Added Ev's faceclaim to my starter, its linked to his name under the first gif.
Alexa is gonna have a ball with this group. Winston, Otto, Ev, and Ness are all heavily armed with dad jokes.
The Dad Joke Brigade, helping to keep morale up when dead people wanna invite you to dinner!
The zombies just want to give you free hugs change my mind.
Ev is just gonna call them anything except "zombies" for a couple days because he's 100% NOT ready to actually acknowledge these are actual zombies and it's the end of the world. I might make him mainly refer to them as "Biters" or "Lurkers" down the road. He may occasionally refer to them "OH SHIT RUN" though.
But can I ask how dangerous these zombies are? I know they can run, jump, and climb. But what about their senses? How strong are they? What level of intelligence do they have? I assume they have some sort of intelligence given Kushala said they can open doors and throw objects as well as search for prey where they last saw it.
All I have to say about this is that Kushala's take on zombies is the most terrifying zombie concept I've ever seen in my life.
Ev is only gonna be staying alive through sheer force of will, because his clumsiness, horrible stealth ability, and lack of speed will be a hassle with zombies that are fast and sensitive to noise. And Winston can like, try his absolute best to trip and die, but Ev will not let him. He will piGgYBAck his little spoon husbando to safety because Winston is like the only reason Ev doesn't just say F it and let himself die.
Also I realize that taking shelter indoors is NOT safe in this setting. Because not only can the zombies open doors, but if one zombie is strong enough to kill and injure multiple people then they are definitely strong enough to break down weaker doors.
Ev is a med student, he'll try his damnedest to take care of Liu mark my words
The only way to learn how to write a character you've never done before is to just do it and ask for help from others because the only way to learn is to try it out and keep at it.
Ev will try his best I promise
