It had been a few months since everything went down the way it did. Since Clementine joined their group. Since…since Marlon and Brody died. Since the raiders attacked them. Took their friends. Killed…Mitch. He was scared, terrified even but he wanted to save his friends, show them that he was there for them and that he wouldn’t just back out. Maybe they expected that of him. That he wouldn’t act, that he’d be his nonchalant and joking self. Not this time. He didn’t want to lose any more of his friends.
He remembered how angry, how upset he got with Clementine and AJ when the kid shot Marlon, his best friend, in cold blood. He was among the others who voted to kick them out. But he quickly came to regret it when Clementine showed up again with AJ in her arms, the boy was injured, blood soaking through his shirt. Louis felt conflicted for a while, he didn’t know if he could still feel angry or upset with them. He truly didn’t know. Eventually, his feelings sorted themselves out and he knew what he needed to do. When Clementine came to talk to him while he practiced shooting with Marlon’s bow, he apologized to her. About everything.
Not long after that, him and Clementine started dating. He totally saw it coming. Okay. He didn't. He never expected Clementine to actually like him, and she did and that just made him so…happy. A light in the darkness. That night they shared their first kiss together. Louis had kissed people before but his short, chaste kiss with Clem just felt like…pure fireworks going off in his head and it felt like butterflies flew around in his stomach.
After that, it briefly went downhill. It seemed like everything they had going for them would be lost. They got captured, managed to escape somehow, Violet briefly lost her eyesight and when they tried to get back home, he had lost sight of Clementine and AJ. Eventually he found them along with Tenn again and led them to a bridge where they were ambushed by Minerva and a herd of walkers. He didn't think they'd make it out of there alive, at least...not all of them, that was...until AJ shot Tenn. In that moment, he was upset again. For doing the exact same thing he did with Marlon, but Louis quickly came to realize it wasn't the same situation. It was him or Tenn, and AJ made a hard choice to kill his friend in order to save Louis. How could he be angry about that? Besides...AJ was hurting too, it was his friend too.
When they got away from the bridge, they were once again ambushed by walkers. Louis had to flee because there were too many. If he was there...maybe, maybe Clem would still have a leg. Maybe she wouldn't have been bitten. He abandoned them. That's how he felt anyway, he knew Clem would say otherwise. He didn't even know how AJ did it, but the kid managed to bring Clem back to the school where she was immediately taken by Ruby, so she could stabilize her and all Louis could do was stare. Stare in pure shock. For once, he was at a loss of words.
He sat at her bed every single day, waiting, hoping. He could barely sleep or eat, how could he rest while his girlfriend was laying there, not knowing when and if she was going to wake up? He just sat there and waited, holding her hand and watching over her. Until one day, she opened her eyes and called out his name. He cried tears of joy that day and checked her all over at the same time, wanting to make sure she was okay. Sometimes Louis caught himself staring at the nub, getting this weird feeling in his stomach. It was strange to see her without a leg, but at least she was alive and that's all that mattered.

31. Friday the Umpteenth
Alice was such a meddler in this episode. What did she expect by teasing Hatter and Hare? Of course they're going to take it as fact and run with it. She was really channeling Cat energy with this one.
I think it's funny that it took them 31 episodes to finally bring a house of cards into a Wonderland show.
I also really love the comedy in Rabbit's "Silly Superstition" song. The slapstick was very well done.

How are the results from the coffee tests coming along?
Good, good. The relaxants can only build up to a certain point, I'd take a guess this varies from person to person. So that's good, they're not too heavy duty

I am not at all a medical professional, so please excuse any inaccuracies. In any case, Roisia would 100% be trying to puzzle out the logistics of a vampire bite.

(Her conclusion? She trusts her needle more.)
