You ever wanna see a character that you want to get killed so much but also want to get redeemed? That's Lilly. I have no sympathy for people who want to make children into soldiers, and especially in such a world of strife as it is, into a pointless conflict. Someone so willing to hurt, kidnap, and kill children is nothing short of despicable. Yet you know there's something there. You know how Lilly is someone who has a heart under there, and if anybody can bring it back out, it's Clementine. But these kids are my priority, not her.

And what kids they are. They're not just one-noters like Duck or Sarah from previous seasons, they're full characters, and I love them.

And you know who else I love? James, the former Whisperer. What a cool dude so far. I really hope he doesn't turn out to be a shitter, because in just the one scene he was in, he quickly become a favorite of mine in this series.

My choices:

-Gave AJ's gun to Louis (sign of good faith, he was obviously remorseful already. Plus, it couldn't have more than, like, two bullets)
-Told Violet and Louis to run (Shocked this is so 50/50. Unless people thought Clem and AJ wouldn't get out of that situation which of course they would lol, it's only episode 2)
-Honored James' request (he's such a sweet dude, why wouldn't you?)
-Stargazed with Violet (also just had Clem go ahead and confess feelings for her)
-Chose to rescue Violet (it'd be a little weird if I didn't after choosing her so much)

Relationship statuses:

AJ - Repentant (yeah, I called his ass a murderer lol. Gently as I could, of course)
James - Appreciative (Clem not sleeping is kind of a bad idea for her, but no reason to not do that really)
Ruby - Grateful (why would you not bury the teacher's corpse lol)
Lilly - Unconvinced (she'll be vinced soon enough.... I'm gonna vince her so bad)
Tenn - Despondent (I love this kid so much please tell me he doesn't die (don't actually tell me I don't want spoilers))
Louis - Kidnapped (my favorite emotion)
Violet - Vengeful (I love Louis, but this kid has the fire, I'm glad I've chosen her)
Rosie - Prettiest Dog

I got way too in my head about that truth or dare session, I don't think it really matters though.

Mitch's argument about the teacher walker is actually really convincing, but he only voices it once you chooses his side (???) dont look it up before finishing the season, idk why they make you choose before letting him say a good reason for burning it

@PitSolitayrh I kinda figured she must have done something bad if he was so adamant about burning her, but since he didn't say anything, I preferred doing right by Ruby. Won't look it up yet though.

@PitSolitayrh Oh I almost forgot about this. Can you tell me why the argument for burning the teacher was?

@electrode it was some shit about not clinging to the past and that the walker corpse was too unrecognizable to give proper respect to the teacher

thinking alternatively about it, i'd rather burn Lee and bury some of his items and photos if he looked so disfigured with no mortician to fix it. You don't need a corpse for a proper ceremony

@PitSolitayrh Makes sense. Though I think if one person strongly thinks they should do a proper burial, then that's what should be done, you're not really losing anything by doing that.

@electrode yeah, ideally he should just leave it alone and let Ruby do what she wants, strange major choice
