(I don't mind how long you write, as long as you write something, lol. If you want to write longer, you may. I may write longer or shorter, depending on how much time and/or focus I have on my hands.)

Destiny
Destiny laughs, "Yeah. I can be really loud. I'm Destiny, by the way. Nice to meet you. How have you been? What adventures have you gone on? Did you meet anyone else? Feel free to not answer any of the questions. It's been a while since I've met someone other than Anthony, he's awesome and smart and kind, but we share a lot of the same stories so nothing is too interesting." She takes the cucumber Ant had been chopping up before and puts it on a plate. She places the plate of cucumbers on the table for everyone to reach and have some. She grabs a few slices for herself and begins nibbling on them, watching Dream with interest. "Is it hard to breathe or see through the mask? Do you ever get hot in the mask and hoodie?" She then makes sure to shut herself up before she could get on everyone's nerves. (Question: do they have a piano or keyboard in the apartment?)

(Sorry I read it wrong...)

(I read it wrong, let me rewrite that... Sorry!)

(Sorry, yes. It seems we're in the same boat now. xD)

Destiny
Destiny nods, continuing to nibble on her cucumber slices. She liked cucumber. "That's neat. I'm sorry to hear you've been alone until this time. Glad you met us. Being lonely isn't fun. You know, one thing I love more than cucumber is celery." She states it as if it isn't completely random and out of place. "Music beats everything, of course. Music is awesome. What's your favorite thing in the world?" She asks Dream. She could listen to people talk about themselves for quite a long time. She could also talk about herself and what she's done for a while as well. She sits down on the edge of the couch, snacking on more of the cucumber. If someone didn't stop her, she'd eat the whole thing.
(Understandable. =D)

Payton
Payton starts in surprise when someone dashes past him, leaving him to fend for himself. Well, he deserved it, that's for sure. Payton got out his knife and defended himself from the zombies. He glances at the fence, listening for any sign of zombies being on the other side. He decides to jump the fence and hope he doesn't crash into a zombie party. Payton climbs over and manages not to break a leg when he lands on the other side. The yard was calm, for now. Payton skirts around the back of the house and opens the gate on the other side to exit. He then closed the gate behind him out of habit and went to his hideout. Perhaps Alex would be there and Payton could apologize for being a terrible friend.

Alex
"No! Leave me alone, Payton!" Alex sounds panicked as he flinches away from Zak when he grabs him. He put his hands up defensively after brushing a few tears away so he could see more clearly. He is ready to fight Zak before he realizes Zak isn't Payton. He slowly calms down, shaking his head when Zak said it wasn't safe.
"It can be safe here. My home is safe. Most of the time." Alex says as he follows Zak. Of course he follows Zak. Even if Zak wasn't holding onto his wrist, Alex would still follow. He didn't like to be alone. He also didn't like Payton, not any more. Not after what happened. He looks for Payton on the way back, though. Even if he didn't like Payton, he still didn't want him to be hurt. Plus, that guy still had Alex's jacket. Alex sighs softly when he doesn't see Payton.
Alex follows Zak inside the treehouse, silently admiring it. "Nice place you've got here." Alex notes, looking around. "I'm Alex. Nice to meet you. Thank you." Alex smiles back, his currently sea green eyes sparkling with the remaining tears from those harsh words Payton had yelled at him. He rubs his eyes, apologizing for shouting at Zak and being an emotional mess.

Destiny
Destiny hums sadly when she hears about what happened to Dream's friends. She scoots towards Dream, wanting to comfort him but unsure how. Some people didn't like hugs, and she didn't want to make things uncomfortable in case Dream was one of those 'no touchy' people, so she offered him a hug instead of just tackling him with one. She had been homseschooled all of her life, hadn't really met any friends, and those she used to have were a whole continent over since she had moved just before the chaos had happened. The only people she really missed were the ones that made up her family.

Payton
"Alex?" I call quietly when I enter the house, opening the door and closing it softly behind me. "I'm sorry." I am greeted with silence, but that is to be expected. I assume Alex is the kind of person that would sulk in a corner and perhaps yell insults on occasion. I shake my head and sit down on the couch, waiting for Alex to come out of hiding when he will. I fell asleep at some point, quite on accident since I wanted to stay awake and be able to apologize if he came 'round.

Alex
Alex laughs. "I think if Payton was anyone else, I would agree with you. However, he's not usually like how he acted a few minutes ago. He's usually really calm and kind. Understanding, too. I don't understand what was up with him earlier. He might not have been thinking clearly. What he said still hurts, though." Alex fumbles with the can but manages to catch it. "I can cook. I can make bread if you want. I have the ingredients at home and I know a few places where I can get more ingredients for other things I can make." Alex eats the food in silence, not minding when Zak rested on him. Alex looks at Zak in concern when Zak squirms. He hums a question, mouth full of food. He didn't want to be rude and talk with a mouthful, so he would have to hope that Zak got the question right. Zak didn't have to answer, of course.

Destiny
Destiny shrugs slightly back in response and falls back onto the back of the couch. She nods in answer to the question, letting Anthony explain. She pauses, debating whether or not she wanted to get up. Destiny gets to her feet and headed to the keyboard, turning the volume down as she turned it on. She plays background music. She played songs she had memorized, some songs she hadn't ever seen the sheet music to but had managed to figure out how to play it by ear, and others that she had to get the music out for since she hadn't has time to figure them out completely.

Alex
"Ah, I see. You haven't been finding things with your back and arms, now have you? That's not a smart thing to do, ya know." Alex sends a small, light hearted joke Zak's way when he had swallowed his bite of food. He was instantly devouring another bite.
Alex starts in surprise when there was a 'ting'. He was about to say something but he instead took another bite of food. He sighs, somewhat annoyed with himself. He tended to do that a lot. He would almost say something but then decide that eating was more important at the last second. He coughs slightly when he swallowed his bite a little too soon. Then he was fine and bouncy as ever. "What is it?" He asks, setting his food aside.

(Thanks!... (What does pog mean?))

Destiny
"Nope. I don't mind. Play as much as you'd like!" Destiny scoots off the bench next to the keyboard and heads over to Anthony, sitting criss cross on the floor next to him. She leans gently on him as she listens to Dream. She really admired his ability to play.

Alex
"Diamond? I've never been in possession of a diamond or any precious gem." Alex looks at the item Zak had picked up while he continues to talk. "Well, ok, I take that back. I technically have a ring and a bracelet, but I don't have them. They're locked away in the safe in my parents room and I don't know the code. They were planning on giving them to me later, I don't know when since I don't really know what their plan was... I don't think that's ever going to happen." Alex laughs, a short sad note that didn't sound too much like his normal, jovial laugh. "I wouldn't know where it would come from, sorry."

(Oh! Yeah, ok. Thanks!)
