Seth crept up to the patio door, and opened it slowly. He had a slight paranoia about startling people when they were near the railing, but was relieved for just a second to see Casey sitting on the ground. Then, he was worried again.
Seth- "Hey... are you alright?"

Casey- "Being gay in the zompocalypse sucks!"
Seth made an "Awww" face and came to sit at one of the tables.
Seth- "Yeah. I think so too, but for a different reason, I bet." Casey didn't get up. Casey- "What could possib- I mean, I know- I don't..."
Seth waved his hand gently. Seth- "You don't gotta say everything at once." He pulled out a lighter and started lighting the small citronella candles, as the dusky sky was darkening behind them.Casey- "What did you mean by that?"
Seth- "Sounded like you had a lot of words, but not enough mouth."
He smiled slightly at the sound of his own dorky, folksy saying, but kept his eye on the burning candle, and its lemonade scented smoke ribbon. Casey rubbed his head.Casey- "I meant, what did you mean that you thought it was sucky too?"
Seth- "Oh.. hah. That whole thing with Derek & Ione was super uncomfortable and not great for the self-esteem. Hadn't gotten torn into that since I was back home. Never know when people are gonna be that way, now that we're all stuck together.
Now, I was just assuming that wasn't your reason, am I wrong?"
Casey- "Oh my god, I forgot all about that! I'm sorry... Uh... No, I was just... Not enough guys. Or it feels like it."
Seth- "Well, surprisingly we got a fair amount, but yeah, it's still not many. Damn breeders get their pick! Hella lame." He was still looking pretty miserable.Casey- "You don't have to try to make me feel better. Maybe you can't."
Seth- "Okay, maybe I can distract you with a magic trick!"
He did that stupid fingers over the candle thing.Casey- "Ouch."
Seth- "Hey, do you think you'd ever go outside with us?" Distractions worked. Too confused to be sad. Casey- "Wh-why do you bring that up?"
Seth- "It's always the same old faces out there, so boring. Davin never appreciates my jokes. Plus, I think you're cool and it would be fun to spend some time with you. It's not all back-breaking labor and unremitting horror out there, sometimes we do bike tricks too."
Casey- "Jeez, I don't think so. I could go just to get somewhere if I had no choice, but it's too scary. You guys are crazy. We all appreciate it, but you're crazy."
Seth- "Ah it's not so bad! Well, I hope you'll consider it someday. I feel bad 'cause I get to go out and ride my bike and fool around, mayyybe fight a few zombies, meanwhile everyone else is washing dishes until the end of time."
Casey- "Oh my god, you're just... I don't even know... Hmph." He stood up and shook himself out a bit. Casey- "I won't go outside for fun. It's just too crazy. Maybe sometime I'll go somewhere if we have to, and it'll be safe when we get there. Maybe."

Seth- "Ohhhkay, I guess that's as good as I'm getting."
Seth- "Hey wanna dance before it turns to like, the Dawson's Creek theme song?"
Casey- "I said stop trying to make me feel better, you jerk! Get out of my patio!"
Seth- "Okay okay, but-- let me tell you this, Casey. I don't want to wait, for our lives to be over. I want to know right now, something something."

Seth was forcible ejected from patio, fortunately on the Comm Center side.

The other native bounced out the door and carefully closed it behind him. Richie- "Man oh man."

He leaned on the wall. Richie- "You were talking angrily and glaring at me. I don't know. What is up?"

"Oh. You heard? I guess my voice IS pretty loud ... I'm just being a Michael, okay? So, Michael was my best friend in elementary school and Jr. high, until I took a girl he liked to ice cream once. Next thing you know, I'm the antichrist. No, seriously, he compared me to the antichrist. Not even ironically. Eh. Do whatever. I don't care if you and Chelsea get married. Michael was a jerk. And according to Buddhism, jealousy is a poison. Oh, I'm a Buddhist now."

Richie- "That's a relief. You're kinda scary. But I'll let you know. Chelsea's just out there dancing with anyone. Probably didn't mean anything. "

"Scary? Really? Me? No way! My cat Snowball is more dangerous! Seriously, he is. Anyway, do whatever. Don't have to worry about this guy." He pointed to himself."So, want to hang out with Wil and Kaya? We could also track down Nat." Alex checked his wristwatch. "He'll be hiding under a bookshelf by now, if my timing's correct. I'm planning a mission that might be relevant to our top secret society of paranormal investigation. Oh, we're still looking for members, if you're interested. You and Nat get along pretty well?"

He looked over his shoulder, then back at Alex. Richie- "They broke up the dance so someone could play... Rock mandolin? ... Who's Nat?"

"You haven't met Nat?! He's the shy blond guy with taped up glasses. Doesn't talk much, but when he does, it's pretty interesting. YOU GUYS HAVE TO MEET NOW, OKAY? Also, he was a barista, and I'd literally LITERALLY kill for a sea salty caramel hot chocolate, like the kind Starbucks had every winter."

At the boisterous mention of killing, he swallowed a lump. Richie- "Erm, OK... He's under a bookshelf now?"

Alex was oblivious to the affect his Alexness had on poor Richie."Oh, yeah! Under one, behind one, or between the whole bunch. Follow me!" He sprinted back inside!
