Foxjin gets up in the morning discovering that she’d fallen asleep on the branch and somehow hadn't fallen down, she looks down seeing Amber below the tree asleep.
She climbs down deciding not to wake Amber yet, she looks over at DNAx sitting by Burrito his face still in a smile as he sleeps. He’s made a new friend in Burrito now; she can see that. It doesn’t make her as upset as she would have thought. Colder is sitting by himself probably thinking about finding Nico again.
Soon Grave is up and everyone else is waking up as well, it's time to walk again. They sit around the campfire for breakfast and Foxjin reluctantly joins them.“Ok,” Grave murmurs “Band how far along do you think we are?”
Band looks up at everyone,
“Uhhhh,” he looks around awkwardly.
“Nico’s house is near,” Colder supplies for him and Band nods.
“Then we go down path,” he says.
“Yayyyyy Band!” Pink exclaims showing she’s still enthusiastic about everything, she pats his head happily even though it’s obvious he doesn’t know how to get where they are going.
“Ok, attack plan,” Grave looks over at Steve then at Burrito, he sighs.
“We shall attempt to talk first, find out about Colder and Steve’s friends,” he says finally, Burrito perks up excited that his idea is being followed.
“If it comes down to a fight, I give full permission for you guys to run,” Grave murmurs, “to save yourselves,” then he locks eyes with Steve for a moment.
“I won't,” Amber says which is a bit shocking because she’s the one that knows everyone the least.
DNAx agrees with her which is also surprising, Foxjin feels obliged to agree so she murmurs.
“Me too.”
Now it’s Amber’s turn to look at her surprised, Grave stares over at her as well.
“Well, uh-“ he seems a bit unsure what to say, because she doesn’t talk often, “If he agrees then I think it’s safe to say no one will be running.”
Foxjin nods slowly,
“Yeah,” then she meets Grave’s gaze, “and I'm a girl... actually."
Everyone is staring at her now in surprise, she feels their eyes burning into her, but she stays still not talking anymore. Then Pink falls off the log onto the grass for almost no reason at all interrupting the tension.
“Ow!” she exclaims picking herself up, Foxjin almost feels like she’d done it on purpose, but there’s no way- she’s too dumb for that.
“Ok, who knew” Amber says then raises her hand, Colder and DNAx raise theirs as well, Pink and Band perhaps could know, gender means nothing to zombies though.
Burrito’s expression changes and he looks over at DNAx as he realizes his teasing hadn’t worked like he thought, now that he knows Foxjin is a girl there’s no point in anything he’d said anymore.“Ok, well, now that we know each other better and all,” Grave says, “let’s get going.”
He does her a favor in taking the attention off her quickly now that everyone knows.
“Wait hold on,” Steve looks over at him “you’re telling me no one questioned who she was at the Resistance?”
“Uhh appearance is enough,” Grave shrugs “blame him, he brought her,” he points at DNAx who blinks then shrugs.
“It was obvious to me,” he says, “not my fault,” then he gives Burrito a grin, “I told you so.”
Burrito stares at him then at Foxjin,
