Bullshit is showing up here with everything on me but my comic books. All those Savage Starlight issues, gone. Just like that. Fuck you too, Initiative.

[A pause. Ellie's never really addressed a group of people. Technology is crazy. Okay, there was a point to this whole thing.]

... anyway, guess I just wanted to say thanks to the people that helped me out when I got here. I found who I was looking for, so. Didn't wanna leave anyone with a cliffhanger.

...wow.

[That's eerily similar in a "humanity got wiped out" way.]

That sounds like it's miserable. At least we didn't have to deal with the plague!

[vaccination]

[Thanks, Asuka...]

It's worst for people who were actually around before it happened. They remember how shit used to be.

[redheadcarrier]

[Anytime.]

Yeah, probably. Growing up in it is different, I guess - I mean, there's just stuff that doesn't happen anymore.

[vaccination]

Yeah. Like this tablet thing--the military has walkies and stuff, but people don't have things like... computers, or cell phones.

[redheadcarrier]

Really? We had computers and cell phones, at least. I guess you had it worse.

[vaccination]

Too bad there's not a trophy for fucked up worlds.

[redheadcarrier]

Who'd actually want it, though?

[vaccination]

Maybe I want something to decorate my room with.

[redheadcarrier]

What would it even say? "Congratulations, you survived the worst apocalypse"?

[vaccination]

"So far, anyway."

[redheadcarrier]

I'm not sure I want to know how much worse it can get.

[vaccination]

Let's not jinx it.
