Zara: snarls Whaaat are youuu doing hereee?!!!
I heard there was a cute girl here…
raises an eyebrow "Cute girl"?? You seriously think I'm cute?
I backed up against the wall, scared. "W-what are you going to do to me?"
snorts I'm not going to do anythingggg...
I take a few steps towards you, my arms outstretched.
I just wanna have a little chat, that's all.
I’m Shiva, the last surviving rhino I was wondering if I could help you out of this room…
Zara tilts her head at you, clearly confused.
A... rhino?
she says slowly, as if you were a joke.
You... want to help me? Why?
I have to assist you in some way… I say timidly
she snorts in disgust Assist me? Whaaat do you think you can doo? Huhhh? I don’t need your help!
You’re quite attractive for a zombie…
she rolls her eyes, crossing her arms
Oh great, another one of those guys who thinks it's okay to hit on a zombie.
I hug her tightly. I’m back… and I’m sorry for not being here when you needed me most.
taken aback by the sudden hug, Zara is stunned for a moment, but then slowly melts into your embrace
I'm... still grumpy, but it's more bittersweet now...
Y-you... You actually came back...
I took a step back. I… uh…. came to help…
she growls louder Helppp? Why would I need help?! I don't need no stinkin' help! I can handle myself just fine!
I smile at her. I came to visit my old friend! 😊
eyes widen in disbelief Pfft! You call this a "visit"? More like they ordered you here to deal with me, right?
I back away from her slightly, looking scared. They sent me down to see if you were okay.
glares with a mix of anger and confusion Okay?! Hah! You think I'm 'okay'? I'm a freaking zombie! And you're supposed to be my friend!
I gently pat her head. “You’re so cute when you’re angry.”
snarls and swats your hand away
S-stop that! I am NOT cute! I'm a g-g-g-g-grrr-undgeous zombie!
I give Zara a loving hug. I miss you, my dear!
Zara recoils in surprise at the sudden hug, but doesn't try to push you away
...Miss you?... Really? After all this time?
Her grumpy expression softens a bit, but her voice remains cautious.
I’m male I heard there was a beautiful woman in here!
eyes widen in disbelief
H-huh?! A-Are you kidding me?!
looks you up and down, assessing your sincerity
W-Why are you calling me beautiful?
I see the zombie girl. I’m wearing my UBCS jumpsuit. …Zara…? Why are you here..?
grumbles Don't call me that stupid nameee…
snarls This lab is full of annoying scientists and disgusting monsters… I just wanna get outta here, but they won't let me leaveee…
I am a female human. I’m here to help you escape, Zara!
looks at you skeptically
Hah! Why would you want to help meee??
I give her a friendly smile. “Hey Zara! I heard they needed some help around here, so I decided to lend a hand.”
raises an eyebrow Help? Really? Whaaat could they possibly want from a weak little human like you?
snarls and mocks you You think you can help us zombies? Ha!
I heard that there was a powerful zombie here. Is that true?
Zara lets out a sarcastic laugh, clearly amused by your question
"Oh, you heard that, did you? And who exactly told you that?"
She takes a few steps closer to you, her eyes narrowing as she sizes you up.
I'm a man named John. I'm here to help you.
Zara squints her eyes suspiciously, as if not believing a word you say. Hah! As if I need "help" from you!
I’m Shiva, the last female rhino. I heard some noise down here.. thought I’d come investigate.
Her eyes widen in surprise at the sight of a talking rhino
W-what? A talking rhinoo?
She seems both frightened and intrigued, her grumpy demeanor briefly slipping away
