Indeed. And thank you! It turns out, you don’t lose all of your intelligence when you become a zombie. Unless the before picture didn’t have much intelligence to begin with. I bet they’d be a pretty lousy zombie. Like the one I had an encounter with.

You're welcome! That's very interesting. Yeah you may be right there. So, is there something comparable intelligence-wise? Like in a movie or something? Are you still pretty mobile or do you shamble? How bad is the decay?

Thank you! I haven’t actually seen many zombie movies, I’m sorry! I feel as intelligent as before. I guess I was waiting for my brain to just give up. Maybe that’s the final stage and I was wrong, though I sincerely hope not! I shambled a bit a moment ago, but only because I was sat down for too long, lol! The decay’s pretty nasty. I’m all green now. I look like a giant booger, basically, lol! Thanks for asking!

You're welcome! It's ok, no worries. That's good that you feel the same intelligence, I'm happy for you. Ooooh hope not either. Lol. You're welcome again. It's new for me to talk to a zombie. Witches, Vampires, eh I'm used to those. But a zombie girl? That's all new

Thank you! It’s pretty much talking to a human, I bet. But like…Cooler. Unexplainably cooler. /j

You're welcome! Yeah, and I'm learning new zombie stuffs. I've always been fascinated by the darker aspects of life. And it could be cool to have a zombie friend :).

Can I have a zombie friend too? I don't know if your kind of monster and my kind of monster usually get along but I'm willing to find out. And it would be great to have a hunting partner with a similarly dark sense of humour; I've never had one before, sense of humour or no, and it seems like it could be fun sometimes.

We can also split our kills, which would cut down on the risk for both of us, as well as the practicality of sharing since we both kinda order the same meal but only consume a specific part of it - but not the same part, so no worry about competition there, and less is wasted.

Personally, I only need the blood and the actual kill itself. It's a... it's a Thing™? I don't know. But yeah, you seem a bit more omnivorous than I, which, given the dangers inherent in the process of procuring the means to satiate our respective dietary requirements... I mean, to me that says we could be quite the efficient team, no?

So. Zombie friend?

Absolutely! I would love to be your zombie friend! I gave you an award too. You’ve got a way with words, my monster friend!

Thank you so very much, that is one of my favourite compliments! How did you know? (Is it the brains? It's the brains, right?)

It's also a compliment I can and will gladly give to you in turn. Your writing is a pleasure to read and your voice is wonderfully distinctive. I'm looking forward to more of your work that I'm sure I'll really be able to sink my teeth into.

(I'm so sorry, lol, I know it's a terrible pun and I don't even like puns but I kinda had to.)

I think I'm going to enjoy my new zombie friend. And I thank you for the award! Nice choice, too. 🖤

You’re very welcome! It must be. The more brains I consume, the stronger mine becomes.

Thank you so much, fellow monster friend, that warms my dead heart!

I’m so glad to hear it! 🖤

Edit: and thank you for the award fellow well-spoken monster friend. :D

Edit: and thank you for my dinner!

You are, of course, most welcome. You should drop by some time, I know quite a few people who would be a thousand times more bearable either posthumously or with nothing but air between their ears. No-one would notice as long as you put the top of the skull back in place.
