Melanie supposed it would’ve made sense to be angry when she and Georgie came across Jon for the first time since he’d started the Apocalypse but...she just couldn’t find it in her. She’d missed him. They hadn’t been especially close before she’d quit but she truly had begun to consider him a friend after losing the Slaughter’s bullet—she supposed that’s what shared trauma did to you. It made you bond with someone you otherwise absolutely would not have.Or: Melanie and Georgie come across Jon and Martin. The world may be over, but none of them are done fighting.
