She frowns, "Ah... why not?" She pouts up at him.

"It's just one of those nights," was all he replied, gazing up at the sky, the light of the stars reflecting in his eyes.

She frowned a bit and nudged into him, "Well... I'll stay up with ya as long as I can." She nodded.

"If you're leaving in the morning you should get your rest," he suggested quietly, watching a disused satellite move its way across the sky as a dim speck of light.

Cora thought about that before shaking her head, "I stay up as long as you stay up..."

"Then you're gonna be up all night." He yawned and lay back on the roof, supporting his head a bit with his hands as he lay on his back watching the sky.

Cora shrugged, "So be it." She went to lay back with him and hold around his upper chest with her one arm, keeping her other around herself, looking up at the sky with him, "Never really focused on the sky too much... pretty..."

"It is," he agreed. "Most things are when you actually slow down and look at them."

She shrugs a bit, "Name another thing," she says with a slight snicker.

"Flowers. Birds. Trees. Animals. Hell, even clouds. It's all so delicate, each is beautiful in its own unique way... I dunno, maybe it's just me. But I'm taking more time to enjoy the little things now since I don't really know if I'll survive to see the next day."

Cora blinks and takes that as in 'tomorrow' next day, "Well don't go runnin' into a hoard any time soon Ant, then I can't come back and see ya..."

"I know. I won't. At least I'll try not to; that's something I try to avoid doing."

Cora nods rapidly and hugs him tighter, possibly a bit too tight, nudging into him more, "I gotta come back and find you at some point, no doing that..."

Anthony was having issues breathing at this point but he didn't really care.
"Find the girl, Cora, and come straight back. If you die when I let you go, not only am I gonna kill you but I'm gonna be forever beating myself up for letting you go in the first place."

She blinks and lets him go a bit, "It's not as simple as finding her and coming back, I have people gonna wanna keep me with them to..." She groans for a moment.

"Bring 'em along," he suggested simply- this was the problem-solving mind of Anthony Goodeall.

She huffs, "That's just make you a target Ant... and I don't want you dealing with me and Petunia, once we're together we... uh... get possessive..." She shakes her head before saying, "Pet's the little girl."

"Yeah, you told me... How would I be a target? I've always been a target, Cora, first in the military and now technically we're all targets, what with the deadheads trying to eat us."

She huffs, "Yeah well... Pet and another person in the group got something big after them, we're tryin' to run from it... but again, it's pretty big..."

"What is it?" he asked, looking over at her.
