° Open re-arrival

Who: Michonne, possibly you
Where: Roof, Grounds
When: April 17th
Rating: R for mentions of violence and most importantly, death of a child.
Summary: Michonne's back. Again. Tell a friend.
The Story:

[ She's back. And for the first time in all of the coming and going she's done in the three years she's been in Wonderland, this is the first time she's not pissed at leaving in the middle of something. As she stands on the rooftop, holding a letter in one hand and a walkie-talkie in the other it's the blink of an eye and slow realization when her setting has changed. Alexandria becomes Wonderland, the smell of the dead is almost startlingly gone, and the memory of everything she's built in this place comes back.

I don't want you to be sad after this.

Closing her eyes, she drops her chin to her chest and lets out a breath as her eyes move over Carl's letter to Negan. It wasn't going to work. It was never going to work, hoping that his words might inspire some kind of truce. But she had to try, for him. She had to try and make it right. Staring out at Wonderland, she lets herself have a single fleeting thought, that Carl could come here. That he could come here and have a life and be a kid for a little while. But every time he does show up, he leaves in a matter of days or weeks. Still, she'd do a lot to see him again, to say the things she didn't because she couldn't believe she was losing another child. She'd vowed never to get close again, and yet somehow there'd been Carl and Judith and Rick, and here she is: carrying Carl's letters in her back pocket, grieving when he told her not to.

You're gonna have to be strong for dad. For Judith.

The rooftops of Wonderland have always seemed busy, so when she hears the door open behind her, she takes a deep breath and lets it out slowly. Folding the letter carefully, she tucks it into her back pocket with her own letter and then stands and waits for whoever's arrived to either join her or go do their own thing. Her walkie-talkie is still in her hand, the static lightly hissing.

For yourself.

Later, on the grounds, she sits by the garden she made last summer, the beautiful dahlias a reminder of everyone she's lost both here, gone to their own worlds, and at home. With the letter Carl wrote for her out now, in her hands, she reads it over and over again, face tense and tears right there at the rim of her eyes but not falling. When the letter drops, she looks at the flowers, speaking, not to anyone, just to Carl. ]


We're going. We're going now to make it better. I'm here right now, but there? We're ending it with Negan. And I promise - I promise you - Judith has me. She'll always have me. World's gonna look good. I'll fight for it, for you. For her. We can be how we were. We will be.

[ She doesn't realize it, if anyone overhears, and she goes back to the letter in her hands. ]

[ He'd spoken to her near the dahlias, once. Unfortunately, everyone's always losing people, and so there's always need to remember them.

Sam is here with someone in mind, but he stops when he sees Michonne, debating whether or not to disturb her. ]


... Hey. [ He hovers, saying without saying that he'll head out if she wants privacy. In the meantime, though, he notes her expression and tries to look... sympathetic. Supportive.

Whatever she's talking about, it's clearly a sensitive and emotional subject, and all they can really do is be there for each other, in Wonderland. ]

[ Snow hears it. She hears everything and because she knows her it makes her heart break as she closes her eyes. She's gotten to know Michonne because this is the person Regina loves, and that makes her family as far as she's concerned. So, to know she lost someone makes her step forward and kneel next to Michonne, resting a hand on her shoulder as she speaks softly. ]

I'm glad to see you again. Does Regina know?

[Gren enjoys the grounds of the mansion. They're such a far cry from the endless noise of New York. You could almost forgive the whole kidnapping thing, for the moments of peace they offer. Almost.

He recognises Michonne and heads over, head canted to one side.

I mean, I know the fuckin' flowers in the story talked, but I'm not sure these ones do. Probably not the best conversationalists, ya know?

( Clementine has noticed Michonne's absence. Her stuff was still here, but they come from such a shitty world- They both know that going back means being subjected to Hell. There's no other way to put it. She likes hanging out on the roof. Sometimes she'll stand up on top of it, breathing in the fresh air.

She doesn't expect to find Michonne there, but her stomach does a few knots as soon as she does.

Still she manages a smile even if there's concern and worry in her eyes. It's just so damn good to see her again. )


...You're back.

[Minato went out on the roof on occasion sometimes to practice violin, sometimes to just get a glimpse of the view, sometimes to think about home and the last place he had been which was a rooftop. It was more of the latter today as he arrived there without an instrument but just with whatever was on his person on a normal day, mp3 player and all.

He didn't expect though to see Michonne there. He had the fleeting thought that this was the first time he'd seen her here, and he bowed his head slightly in greeting.]


I hope I'm not interrupting.

[It wasn't uncommon for Jean and Michonne to cross paths in Wonderland, going from here to there, and they'd exchange brief pleasantries. Usually nothing that substantial, just hi's and how are you's. Still, he could tell when something was different, and he paused for a moment to observe what she was doing.]

Michonne? [He didn't make out her words, but he still heard her speaking to herself.] Something up?

[He hadn't noticed that she'd been gone. It happens so often around here that you just can't keep track of every person that disappears.]

[It's funny, really, how often he comes up here now to find that someone else had the same idea. It isn't too unusual to find more than one person up here, separate and silent in their own thoughts.

Dan is up here for the relative peace and quiet. What he finds is Michonne.
]

Oh, hey.

[They cross paths enough that he noticed she was gone, but he couldn't have said for how long. He glances over his shoulder, back inside the mansion, but decides on heading over to her instead.]

... Y' okay?
