At some point before this chapter, the protagonists need to make phone
|
|
calls happen – probably from the perspective of those on Earth as
|
|
most of the things in the Lunar Biosphere have been at least kinda
|
|
maintained.

Emily finds herself laying on the floor, still staring into the sky.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class="light">

She lifts her head.

That's the phone in the control room.

Emily turns onto her side and slowly gets up. Her back hurts.

<span class="quote speech">On my way, I'm on my way.</span> she says
|
|
in a soft <span class="comment">matten?</span> voice.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The phone rings a few more times but stops before she can make it there.
|
|
She realizes how thirsty she is and takes a detour to the nearest kitchen.
|
|
She thinks <span class="quote non-speech">Water! Yes!</span> but her
|
|
excitement quickly turns into disgust as a brown liquid full of clumps
|
|
<span class="comment">sprudelt?</span> from the tap. The detour gets
|
|
bigger.

After getting water from Tony's lab and feeding the mice –
|
|
which she had neglected to do – she goes into the main control
|
|
room. The terminal for communication with Earth is lit up,
|
|
showing a message. Emily sits down and, before even reading it, starts
|
|
typing.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<pre class="terminal">
|
|
<span class="blur">MICHELLE @ EARTH-53 <b>></b> A message Emily doesn't register and won't remember.</span>
|
|
LENA @ MOON-01 <b>></b> Lena is dead.
|
|
MICHELLE @ EARTH-53 <b>></b> I am so sorry.
|
|
MICHELLE @ EARTH-53 <b>></b> My condolences.
|
|
MICHELLE @ EARTH-53 <b>></b> Are you ok to talk? Or do you need some time?
|
|
<span class="comment">TODO: change above message</span>
|
|
</pre>

Emily is hungry asf at this point
