Fear The Walking Dead, Survival Rule Of The Week:People In Your Corner

You Partner Against The Walking Dead Has To Be There For More Than Just Zombies.

Realistically, if you wanted to, you could just grab some rando and arrange some “mutual defense pact” with them to watch each other’s backs in the zombie apocalypse. It could work out, at least against the dead, maybe against the living, but those aren’t the only problems you deal with in the apocalypse, are they?

There will also be the serious emotional trauma that will inevitably come with losing the world you know and everything and everyone in it that you cared about. You might laugh that off, but just imagine for a minute your hometown was nuked, and your family, your friends, and everything you were even remotely familiar with was wiped off the map in an instant. How would you feel? How long do you think it would be before you were “okay”? However long that might be, if the person with you is only an “ally,” they’re not going to be much help with that.

This is why you need to have someone with you that you care about and who, more importantly, cares about you.

You’re inevitably going to need someone to help through those times in the apocalypse when the thing most likely to kill you is the darkness in your mind, brought on by losing your whole world to the dead, and something that some rando who doesn’t give a damn about you either couldn’t or wouldn’t do for you.

If you don’t have a partner in the zombie apocalypse with you, all you’ve got is an “ally,” and an ally is just a person you stick with as a matter of convenience.
