WHAT ever
WHERE ever
WHEN Day 73 maybe? probably. that was a long blizzard tho.

[EYYYY IT FINALLY STOPPED SNOWING!!!

In fact, the roads are clear, even. Maybe the weird mechanical noises that could be heard in the wee hours of the morning were snowplows...? Sure. That seems like the reasonable explanation.

Seems like time... for a SNOWBALL FIGHT.

In fact, a snowball may be coming at you right now. Who threw that??

...did... anybody throw that?]

It's been a while since I could just talk with someone.

[like a normal person]

Obviously, we'll have to do this again sometime.

I'd like that. Can let you know if I get the job.

Have you found your phone? There should have been one in your apartment.

I hadn't. I've been staying with a friend. I can find it though.

Well, when you find it, you can text me.

[taking out her notebook and tearing out a piece of paper to write her number on]

It's a deal.

[taking the paper with a half smile.]

This friend you're staying with... they're from the, uh, alternate timeline?

Yeah. He's... he's handling it well, all things considered.

[well enough that sometimes she forgets he's from an alternate timeline. that only makes it stranger when she remembers]

Good. Has he been here for awhile?

Only a few days longer than me. Figuring this out as we go?

You'll be okay. At least they take care of the basics for you.

Made it this far, I suppose. It'd be a pretty chump move to get beat by the suburbs.

Yeah, some days that's the thought that gets me out of bed.

As long as it keep you going, huh?

Mhm. I'll take it.

Could be worse? We could be stuck in Jersey.

[l-laughs]

That's the spirit.

[finishing up her hot chocolate and glancing over her shoulder like she's thinking about who might come in]

I mean it. Thanks.

[and as she stands]

I'll be in touch.

You're welcome.

[waves, just with her fingers]

I'll see you around.
