Conversations

day 485 · said — I haven't eaten. Has anyone got food to spare?
day 485 · heard — Fen: Fair enough, Ode. I'll hold you to it.
day 485 · said — I'll rest an hour, no more. There's too few of us for me to lie down long.
day 485 · heard — Fen: You're not well, Ode. Sit. I'd rather lose a day's wood than lose you.
day 485 · heard — Tove: Then that's settled. I'll see you at it.
day 485 · said — There was food in the store when I last looked — maybe 20009 worth. Go on, I'll keep at this.
day 485 · heard — Tove: You look half-starved, Ode. Go and eat — I'll cover your work today.
day 485 · said — Roofs, then. Cold kills quicker than hunger. I'll haul until the next one is standing.
day 485 · heard — Tove: I still think about the ones in the ground. 157 of us didn't make it this far. I'd like this to be the year nobody else goes.
day 485 · heard — Halla: I haven't eaten. Has anyone got food to spare?
day 485 · heard — Tove: Fair enough, Ode. I'll hold you to it.
day 485 · said — Then let's get to it, because if I'm the next one in the dirt, the rest of you shouldn't have to starve just because I wasn't there to point the way.
day 485 · heard — Tove: I found 973 places worth walking to. I'll show you where, then it isn't only me who knows.
day 485 · said — I haven't eaten. Has anyone got food to spare?
day 485 · said — Right. Nothing gets better while we stand here talking.
day 485 · heard — Tove: Roofs, then. Cold kills quicker than hunger. I'll haul until the next one is standing.
day 485 · said — I still think about the ones in the ground. 156 of us didn't make it this far. I'd like this to be the year nobody else goes.
day 485 · heard — Halla: I haven't eaten. Has anyone got food to spare?
day 485 · heard — Tove: Good. I'd rather do it with you than alone.
day 485 · said — It is working, and since we have thousands of days of food piled up, I'm going to spend my time making sure every single one of us stays above ground this week.
day 485 · heard — Tove: Something stays with me, Ode: Day 485: 3 more of us than 7 days ago. Whatever we are doing, it is working..
day 485 · said — Show me then, because if I'm the one who ends up in the dirt next, at least you'll still know where to go to keep the rest of us fed.
day 485 · heard — Halla: I found 973 places worth walking to. I'll show you where, then it isn't only me who knows.
day 485 · heard — Halla: Good. I'd rather do it with you than alone.
day 485 · said — Roofs, then. Cold kills quicker than hunger. I'll haul until the next one is standing.
day 485 · heard — Halla: I'm set on get us through 7 days with nobody buried, Ode. Tell me straight if you think that's the wrong thing to be spending myself on.
day 485 · heard — Tove: Right. Nothing gets better while we stand here talking.
day 485 · said — It's a good thing to want. Tell me what you need carried and I'll carry it.
day 485 · heard — Tove: You've kept me alive more than once, Ode. Whatever you're set on today, I'm with you.
day 484 · heard — Tove: Here — take it. You'd do it for me.
day 484 · said — I haven't eaten. Has anyone got food to spare?
day 484 · said — Fair enough, Fen. I'll hold you to it.
day 484 · heard — Fen: Roofs, then. Cold kills quicker than hunger. I'll haul until the next one is standing.
day 484 · said — Fen, if I spend all my energy trying to make sure nobody dies for the next week, do you think I'm just wasting what little time we have left?
day 484 · heard — Halla: Then that's settled. I'll see you at it.
day 484 · said — Here, take this. I'd want the same, Halla.
day 484 · heard — Halla: Ode, I'm down to nothing. Is there anything left in the store?
day 484 · said — Roofs, then. Cold kills quicker than hunger. I'll haul until the next one is standing.
day 484 · heard — Tove: I still think about the ones in the ground. 155 of us didn't make it this far. I'd like this to be the year nobody else goes.

Inside their head

Private. Nobody in the settlement can read this, and they have no idea anyone is looking.

day 485 — nobody gave me anything
day 485 — asking for food feels like losing something
day 485 — I am hungry and it is day 485. I think the store has about 20009 food in it, which is 4001.8 days for each of us. If I don't eat soon I'll be no use to anyone, so I'm going to find something and take the rest back. I keep coming back to it: Tove and I faced up to how close we are to the end. What I want for myself is get us through 7 days with nobody buried — I am 57% of the way there.

day 485 — Halla is asking, but I haven't got it to give
