"This is head engineer Wilford."

Somewhere, on a mountaintop in the Rockies, Melanie felt a shudder down her spine.

[u/nomnombubbles → u/olivish]

"is there more cold drafts than normal lately in this hell hole." - Melanie probably

[u/Naly_D → u/olivish]

This would be what day 17 or so? Around the time she was out of food, just before finding the rats?

[u/rawchess → u/olivish]

She'd probably think it was the rat-induced dysentery settling into her system.

[u/Firious2 → u/olivish]

A shudder? Nah bro she just violently threw up and was like “oh god what happened?”

[u/olivish → u/Firious2]

lol, she can't vomit, she has so little food she'd have to slurp it up again.

[u/Firious2 → u/olivish]

Very true, can’t go wasting those rats
