There's something everyone should see.

We could use all eyes at the bunker. It's...

I'm not even sure how to explain it.

Come, if you're curious.

Bring alcohol. You'll need it.

Wow. You're really telling me whoever is running this place is out here murdering children left and right.

Actually the same children over and over again. Wow. Like props for being honest with me. I mean don't get me wrong. I'm not down with adult murder either. It's just wow. Children. Repeatedly. We're dealing with actual monsters here.

How do you know this again?

[zomboligist]

Probably more adults.

The children part? I don't think so.

There's a list here, at the bunker. It's got iterations and names. Plenty of names, both here and not.

I'm fairly sure it can only mean one thing.

Here's the thing: I'm a kid. Peter is a kid. Elle is... was? a kid. That's three kids who have possibly died more than once. These are just examples off the top of my head. There are more kids who I don't even know about!

So yeah. They're crazy child killers who we need to punch a lot even if they're mostly adult killers.

But, yeah what does it mean?

[zomboligist]

no real kids by that definition. teenagers.

no five year olds, no babies.

that has to say something, doesn't it? or maybe that's just their line in the sand

I don't think my parents will see it that way. Look I'm not scared... okay I am scared, but like not really of dying??? Everyone dies. I want to live longer, but it's not my call.

The problem is they're not supposed to outlive me like a bunch of times. The same for Peter's aunt and so on. It's not pretty when the kid dies before the adults. That's why I'm upset. They're still the monsters in Abu and Ammi's stories whether I'm five or sixteen when it happens.
