Has anyone found a pod containing someone that was supposed to be dead? That they knew to be dead.

( river asks more out of curiosity than anything, out of trying to understand and gain more knowledge on the pods, on who and how they were brought here. she also can't deny that small piece of hope that comes with the question, of wanting to see someone that she couldn't (shouldn't) be able to see again )

It's probably not the same as back home, with the outbreak. But it still makes me a little uneasy.

[retrorsum]

Outbreak?

[darraig]

Whatever it was. Whatever it was that started people not staying dead. Zombies, walkers, whatever people call them.

[retrorsum]

( uh what now )

Are you certain they weren't alive?

[darraig]

Considering the state some of them were in? Yeah. I am sure. And it wasn't just a one off thing. It spreads. Fast. You get bit or scratched by one, you're a goner and become one of them too. You die, however that happens, you become one. Unless you're still dying and someone....helps you out.

[Which. She has done before. It wasn't easy. But she did.]

[retrorsum]

That's more than a little disturbing.

[darraig]

Quite. But it doesn't seem to be an issue here. No outbreak. So. That's good. I'd rather not have to deal with that again.

[retrorsum]

Then let's hope it stays that way.

[darraig]

Hopefully.
