In theory: yeah! Runie could survive the zombie apocalypse for a few years. But! If he did, then he’d transform into something monstrous as well. With constant danger, his loved ones dying slowly day after day, and just put under so much stress… he’d just snap and let instincts control him. So no longer can he control his strength, its released in its most primal form with no inhibitions and limitations!
In reality: Runie would live for 7-8 months before he sacrifices himself for his mama or someone close to him (like he’d stay and be a shield for them as they escape as he holds the zombie hoard off before getting crowded)
Like i dont think his heart and mind could take it. My child is too soft-hearted to live in a world so ruined ☹️
