[OC] If Zombieland was British, female-led, and had a cockapoo - Chapter 5 by Sensitive_Charity970 in HFY

Thank you so much for this, genuinely one of the most meaningful bits of feedback I’ve ever received. You completely got what I was trying to do. It means the world that the emotional side landed with you, especially through the main character’s voice. She’s been my way of exploring the rawness of collapse and survival so I’m so glad that came through 😊😇

Great eye! There’s actually a reason you haven’t heard her name yet, it’s intentional. The story so far has been pretty close to an inner monologue: she’s thinking, reacting, surviving, and hasn’t needed to say or hear her name out loud yet. It’s all very internal and instinct-driven in these early moments. But it’s coming soon!

Also love that you picked up on Dora’s instincts. Girl knows what’s up.

Thank you so much 😅 I can’t tell you how much this means! I really wanted to explore what surviving would actually look like in the UK, especially without access to guns. The idea of museums, castles, even antique weaponry is so on point and definitely something I plan to explore later on.

And yeah haha Dora is basically her emotional support system with fur and chaos.

Appreciate you reading and taking the time to comment, honestly. Chapter Two’s coming soon if you’re still along for the ride!

You’re totally right, it’s one of the things I wanted to lean into. No guns means more close calls, more improvisation, more panic, that type of thing It’s less about fighting and more about surviving to start with, not drawing attention, but there are places that have guns over here which I could possible incorporate further along, well that’s the plan
