agilebritWHY IN THE HELL is my protag (who is not Stoopid) staying in his tiny town with the power out and no resources anyway? Wouldn't he get the hell out and go someplace like Austin or College Station, which have, you know, great big UNIVERSITIES, and see what they know?
I mean, with the power out in his town and no communication, for all he knows, the rest of the world is dead normal.
I have thought about a quarantine situation, where the Feds look at the OMG ZOMBIES!, which are just in that little town, and say "Nuh-uh, no one gets in or out, and we shoot anyone who tries." O HAI NATIONAL GUARD HOW R U TODAY? So, at least he'd be stuck there for a reason.
Hm. He could get out, with his bitten-but-showing-no-signs-yet daughter, via a dirt road very few people know about, and find out the rest of the world is dead normal. And then the daughter gets loose, and he's personally responsible for the Zombie Apocalypse.
That might be fun.
TOO MANY CHOICES OMG. *bangs head repeatedly on keyboard* alkdfja;lfja;lfakjl;fj I HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE THIS.

Hell, I don't know. This story isn't broken like the Ghost Ship Fic is broken, but it might be a near thing. Good thing the deadline isn't until June 30. *headdesks repeatedly*
