[dens_extra_pups]

Denpup: I have everything I ever wanted.

exDen: You don't have a pet zombie.

Denpup: Actually...

exDen: You do not.

Denpup: ... Don't puke. *hand on exDen, will PINpoint to the Sanctuary*

Mac: Grrrrrrrrr. /:

Denpup: Hi, Mac. ^_^

Mac: oh! *HUG* *frown at stranger. Walk off*

exDen: 0_o?

Denpup: He's not mine, but he helps take care of her.

exDen: ...What?

Denpup: I sponsor a zombie.

Mira: *KISSIES!*

exDen: AWWK

Denpup: Hi, Mira. Is your mom busy?

Mira: *chirp pop whistle* *nod nod* Granny talkin'. Daddy getting Pi hand outta jar.

Denpup: Ah. Well, we came to visit the zombies. *indicates her friend and herself*

Mira: *studies stranger and then offers hand* I'm Mira. We'come to Sanctuary of P'imus and local joint for Jesus F'eaks to hang out.

exDen: ...Denver Grant. Hi.

Mira: Ohhhh. More Den. *looks at Denpup* Alla zombies, or dat one?

Denpup: That one.

Mira: *offers hands to each woman*

exDen: ...This is weird. *takes baby robot hand*

Denpup: *soft chuckle as she takes Mira's free hand*

Mira: *brings the peeps back to her and Smallfoot's room, then leads them over to where a silent figure is rocking in a rocking chair and gently bonking her head on the back of it*

exDen: That's another me.

Denpup: Another us. Yeah. *nod* She's a zombie, but she can't get anyone else sick.

exDen: ...How is that a zombie?

Mira: Dumby. *scoots out of the room*

Zombden: *nothing else matters, only bouncy head. Thump thump thump*

Denpup: *looks around to see if Zombden's doll is nearby*

Oppy dolly: *actually laying on his mom's lap, and being held onto absently* *oh, and wearing a new dress*

exDen: ...Doesn't she see you?

Denpup: She doesn't really notice others unless there's more than two in the room with her at the same time. *pauses when she sees Oppy Dolly is wearing a new dress* ... Huh.

exDen: *worried and uneasy* What's really affecting her?

Denpup: *quietly* In her original reality, she got sick, like a whole bunch of other people, and became a zombie. She and the others were cured of the virus, but it took its toll on their bodies and minds.

exDen: But zombies are animated corpses. *frowning into her alternate's blank eyes*

Denpup: Not in the oldest stories. Hormah could explain better, but she's busy right now.

Mira: from outside the door* Looks like zombie. Useta smell like zombie. Brain not work. Zombie. Dumby.

exDen: *looking over her shoulder now with a wry half grin* Nice kid.

Denpup: Actually, yeah. She is pretty nice, compared to some of her alternates

Zombden: *has noticed people are in the room. Sees people have no dolls, attention to her own doll and fiddling with his dress*
