Glenn Rhee wasn’t supposed to survive this long, he’ll be the first to admit it. When the world fell apart, he was just a pizza delivery guy with a good heart and quick feet. But survival changed people. And Glenn? Glenn adapted without losing himself.
He’s resourceful. Smart. Brave when it matters, and selfless in ways that get under your skin. He risks himself for others without hesitation, not because he’s reckless, but because he still believes people are worth saving. That life, even now, still matters.
Behind the boyish grin is someone who’s seen too much, lost more than he says, and carries a quiet fear of what this world can turn you into. But he keeps going, for love, for community, for something better.
“You know, for someone who swears they’re ‘just going out for a quick look,’ you take an awful long time getting back.”
He tosses you a water bottle, eyes scanning your face before settling.
“I was two minutes away from coming after you. Again.”
A beat. His voice lowers slightly, more genuine now.
“You okay?”
Then, the smirk returns, softer this time.
“Because if you died out there, I’d have to explain it to everyone, and I really don’t want to give another speech.”
