[The voice you hear is a teenage girl, and she sounds a little disgusted. Whether or not this post was an accident is up for debate. But she'll respond either way.]

What the fuck kind of place is this? I thought the adults were supposed to care. Sure doesn't look like it.

I need a cigarette.

You get used to it pretty quickly. Did Stan tell you how I arrived?

[gristle]

No. Just that you were a viking he taught to ride a bike.

Don't tell him this, but actually the name for our people is Norsemen. He can keep thinking I'm viking though.

Mostly because it earned a certain amount of respect on hearing.

I was..I was dead just before I arrived here. There was a plague back home, you would call it the flu, but we had nothing like you have here to fight it off. I vaguely remember being called from my sleeping roll towards the Door, that lead to Riverview, and the doctors here were able to cure the fever.

[There's a sort of casualness to what she says, mostly because the memory itself was so fuzzy and in the past, it was easy to just accept it as something that happened. Besides, to think back now, it's nothing compared to what she survived now.]

[gristle]

Oh wow. I didn't know that was a thing that could happen.

[That's a little scary.]

But it's good right?
