Melanie-Rose Wilson
Melanie, at this point, had already decided she liked Archie. He seemed very kind-hearted, and he still had a sense of humor even with hundreds of scary, gross things coming after them. She liked that. If he would have her, she would probably stick around with him for a while. But, she figured that they could discuss the long-term things later. She didn't know if he was just allowing her in for a short ride out of the bad parts, or if he had intended to adopt her indefinitely. Either way, she was going to respect his wishes. He was a good man, and she didn't want to give him any more trouble than he already had with everything going on. She just didn't know how things were supposed to go. There weren't really rules, now that the dead had literally risen.
"Over-protective big brother, huh? I bet it did get you into trouble a lot. Lord knows that my brothers had gotten into more than enough trouble for the rest of us." Melanie chuckled, shaking her head slightly. She turned to look back out the window once more. If she looked past the smeared blood on the window, and out towards the horizon, the sky was still very pretty, and blue. It was strange to her that she could still consider the sky to be pretty. "Enjoy the little things, at this point." Slipped from her lips before she knew it. "Sorry, I kind of mumble to myself sometimes. Just ignore it." She rubbed her forehead in slight embarrassment. It wasn't a huge deal. Just because the apocalypse was here, didn't mean that her quirks had to be stopped. But still...
She was about to begin speaking again, when a different movement caught her eye. "Hey! Hey, Arch, there's a kid out there. He's..." She stopped, trying to see through the smears on the window. "He's smashing one of the dead's head in." She felt a little green at the thought, and looked away. "He seems close enough to hop in if we get his attention." She said.
