[His patience is incredibly thin, and even though he did this over text so he wouldn't sound emotional, Merle can probably tell when he's a little over the edge.]

Why does this cave keep taking important competent women away from them like it's a show on the CW network, whether by energy vampire murder or plain disappearing. ]

[At least he's taking this somewhat seriously, or something. Whatever. It's not important now.]
good just tell me if you see her or if she wanders back home and you find her on the couch with potato chips in her mouth so i can smack her or something
[ This is another scenario where he winds up trapped under a box in the living room, like a cat that gets stuck under a laundry basket. Both luckily and sadly given the context of this conversation, that won't be happening soon. ]
