![]() Seth Gecko (28) I'm not here to wax poetic. I've done some very messed up things in my life. I'll be the first to admit that. But I'm not your enemy, and I'm not your friend. I'm simply here for what's mine. |

[It's not always as easy as this to slip into easy bantering, or somewhat comfortable back and forth. Sometimes, she finds herself stuck on the precipice of awkward uncertainty when navigating through conversations with new people. So when the easy ones come along, she's relieved. She's relieved now, even if it's early in.]
there's a shooting range, if you practice
they don't mind if i go there. lots of supervision.

I'm my own worst enemy lol
[ Much like her, Seth didn't easily connect with others. He could be charming to an extent--if someone was into the brash and brooding type. Networking / social media wasn't his thing having missed the start of it all while in prison. Yet there was something real about Jem, whether it was the bit about her brother in her Cuddlr or just the no bullshit exchange here on his. ]
Name it.

[somewhere in the back of her mind there is a voice -- a familiar one, from mistakes gone by -- that warns against guns. it always is sort of warning her, though, and has been since, well. since she first stepped foot in eudio. it's hard to tell from a profile picture, but she doesn't think Seth will let her daydream herself into a waking nightmare.]

I dont listen 2 gossip. Y not just tell me what it is I should know. U havent exactly answered y they wont let u have guns. If its a bad idea, dont let me set u up 4 failure
[ Seth voiced no worry about himself because he had none. Between his maniac of a brother and what he just came from, the eldest Gecko knew how to disarm someone if a situation called for it. He might not sound like the brightest bulb at times but being quick on his feet kept him alive this long. ]

like i said, i used to have bad nightmares. a lot of the time it was stuff i'd seen, during uhm. the apocalypse. mostly just getting eaten alive, that kinda stuff. used to wake up and it'd feel like someone had a hold of me, but i didn't notice how bad it was until after all the undead folk started getting taken in for treatment. i think it was probably because i couldn't just shoot them anymore and had to face the reality that they were people, deep down. anyway, i started having panic attacks i guess. the kind of ones where i could hear and see stuff out of the corner of my eye, and i used to be the kind of person to pull the trigger first and ask questions later. nearly shot my brother once.
and i guess full disclosure here, i shot someone i'd gone to school with, before all of the world went to shit.
[somewhat belatedly, she realises that is a lot of words and a lot of things to dump on a person on cuddlr. but, this city is so hard focused on informed consent that she can't bring herself to backspace. she sends it and then, quickly after:]
the tldr version is that zombies fucked me up and i accidentally shot a lad in the head if your eyes glaze over when you scroll up

There was something different about this. Her words kept him engaged. None of it was cuddle worthy but he didn't give a shit about that. He doubted she did either. Jem had to deal with zombies while he came from a world of culebras.
A minute passed as he read everything then once more to make sure the hangover doing his head in hadn't mixed up something she shared. ]
i asked. u answered.
Can't say I'd handle the undead any different than u. Makes me appreciate the shit I had 2 deal with.
U almost shot ur brother. I actually did shoot mine.
In the head. Long story but it doesn't do more than put a bloodsucker out of commission for a minute & give them a grade A migraine. It also puts them in a really bad fuckin mood.
Wasn't kiddin about doin some very messed up things b4. So Im still game if u r
no subject

no subject
Apparently nothing. ...Long story, better told in person
How late does the range stay open? Not exactly a morning person, much less after a late night getting shitfaced which is the plan 4 tonight ...mightve already started
no subject
nothing wrong with starting early. i don't think i really remember my first three months here.
no subject
What is it a outdoor range?

no subject
two years in march. been here since the beginning, i think? there was probably volunteers before that, but yeah. i left for a couple months and then came back though. but i'm saying it's two years.
