I'd never fought zombies before this weekend. It could have been worse, I think. I left the library to go with Ash, but thought I would be better off sticking to the front lines, where I fought with notsouledyet, emo_padawan, _dark_chylde, _gottahavefaith, deirdreofamber and bugofjustice (who is really insistent on me having a battlecry. This will not happen). They are all amazing fighters and I was honored to go into battle alongside them. notsouledyet really did a superb job in leading us.

I sacrificed a weapon and some ammunition in order to turn them into grenades, and I was surprised that I could even think of using a chakan oil cartridge for lighter fluid. I don't usually think that way. You shoot things until they stop moving and that's just the way things happen, but it was good to get creative.

I did stop at the Victory Party momentarily before finding John in his room with most of my roommates and several others. I ended up falling asleep there, covered in zombie goo, next to John, who was also covered in zombie goo. Not the most romantic of nights, but it was far from terrible.

Now it's a matter of cleaning up and laundry and finding another pair of leather pants because those are... not saveable- Chiana, you and I never did go into town- and finding out which blonde has my gun. The one that apparently answers to the name "Juanita".

For the record, NO ONE IS EVER TAKING MY FRELLING WEAPONS FROM ME AGAIN. EVER. No weapons locker, no firing range. I will not shoot unless the situation calls for it, and I will even hide it if it makes people uncomfortable, but the first week it was a giant squid, the second it was werewolves, and this week it was werewolves. Got it?

The one that apparently answers to the name "Juanita".

Ha! Caught you! You said it! No take backs! No take backs!

[can_be_more]

I said "apparently"! And I put the name in quotes! I did not name it anything, nor did I call it by name!

We talked about this. Naming things leads to me not being able to blow things up when I need to!

It came out of your mouth, honey. *laughs* You know you like the names, you're just being a hardass and trying to act tough.

Look, name something of mine or on me. Just try it. Please?

[can_be_more]

This is ridiculous.

You don't even want to know what I would name, and what I would name it. Trust me.

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

Somehow I knew you'd say that.

Then, I'll just annoy badger you with naming things.

Let's see...I'd name your boots Claudius. Strong name, good for stomping things like my heart omg!. So, now you can't blow up your boots.

[mycanonhatesme]

Was it you who named the gun Juanita? Do I even want to know why you named your gun? I'm thinking I don't.

And I'm the one who has it, Aeryn. Thank you for lending it to me - it came in very handy last night when we had to fall back. Where should I return it to?

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

Yep, I named the gun. And I didn't name my gun, I named Aeryn's because she won't do it herself. It's just a thing. I name everything.

*smiles*

*still shaking head*

You know you love, secretly, somewhere. If I didn't name things, you'd think I was seriously whacked in the head.

[mycanonhatesme]

Well, I suppose I can't say anything to that. I tend to name computers that come into my possession. But Juanita? I'm sure you could have come up with a better name. *grins*

[can_be_more]

I would never name my weapons. Because then I can't use them from grenades because of emotional attachments, *eyeroll*.

I'm in 239/240. What was your name, by the way?

[mycanonhatesme]

Oh good, I'm right down the hall on the second floor too. I'll swing by and drop it off. And I'm Chloe, not to be confused with Veronica, who's my roommate.

*backs you completely*

I'll be talking to Professor Gandalf about this today. I'll also discuss it with Professors Jerusalem, Jackson, Camulus, RepliCarter, and others who may be on our side.

Will even do legal research if necessary.

[can_be_more]

Thank you. And I will help in whatever way necessary.

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

Good to know we have each other's backs on this.

[can_be_more]

COMPLETELY.

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

Shopping tomorrow? Need new leather too.

...

Also, apparently... a dress.

Beka: I think the entirety of 239/240 is pretty much set on collectively not giving up our weaponry. Actually, I have to double-check with Liz, but I'm sure she's with us. Just so you know.

[can_be_more]

Sounds like Angelus is in, too.

[janet_fraiser]

He's kind of...creepy. Normally. But I saw him doing a lot of good in the library during the zombie attacks.

Anyway, it doesn't matter. If he's with us on this, I'm all for it.

(OOC: So totally never got this post til this morning. *headdesk*)

Excellent, Janet. I'm going to need help convincing the staff. But I'm pretty sure Daniel, at least, is on our side.

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

You were quite the little tiger out there. I've always said fighting goes better when you've got a woman by your side. Glad in my case it was you.

Still have that gun you loaned me. Happy to give it back whenever you want. And if you're interested in fighting that weapons ban, talk to me. I'm always eager to help.

[can_be_more]

We worked well together.

I'm usually easy to find. Just don't let anyone confiscate my weapon. And thanks for the offer. I will definitely be in touch.

[notstakedyet.livejournal.com]

They can have your gun when they pry it out of my cold, dead -

Huh. Okay, possibly not so much of a statement coming from yours truly. But you get the idea.

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

*sizes Angelus up*

I hear you're in favor of us keeping weaponry. Good.

I'm Beka, I'm running for Academic Affairs. And no one is taking my mother-frelling-weapons back.

And stay away from Aeryn because Crichton and the rest of us will kick your ass if you so much as lay a cold, dead, finger on her.
