[ Everything fades to black...and you awaken in a run-down one-room shack, with the distinct feeling that the people around you are your family, if you didn't already have such a bond with them.

You're wearing raggedy versions of your uniform, and a newspaper informs you that you are currently in Cathay, on the fifteenth anniversary of the day the company Lupus' Secret Stash led a coup and established their own government. In fact, you can now remember why you came here - to escape the misfortunes of your own country - because this is truly the land of opportunity and freedom. ]

....so it is a human society is weird thing. Le sign, but got it. So if we can, go for fancy clothes at some point?

And it's...really not that much stretching? I mean unless 900 IS bare minimum, in which case why is food so expensive, shit can be grown.

Actually, if we're miners, wouldn't that mean we're near some place with ground we COULD grow in?

....I wish you'd try to be a little more understanding sometimes.

[Sigh.]

Mines aren't for food and they're not near places you grow food. 1800 is the budget we'd need to satisfy ourselves. 900 is what we can live on.

I don't get most of this society stuff, all I know is how to make food stretch.

I know about mining is about getting shit out of the ground and apparently makes you sick if you do it? But isn't that still just normal ground?

But where else can we take a hit? Isn't this 1000? [Gestures to a house.] How do you cut pay in a house?

It's just the first round. Nothing that bad is going to happen.

I-

I can't. I can't, I can't have someone not-

I would be the better variation! Hell, all my skills did was make sure I could fight the goddamn robots, I know how to push through not eating and I know when it's a bad amount!

[Welp.]

[Kind of a pap.]

I-

It was ten years, Zelos, I can do it.

We've all starved. I have more assets than all of you together probably have clothes and I've starved. We'll definitely starve more later in this game. Calm down and let him do it if he wants to do it. There will be plenty of suffering to go around for everyone, I promise. You'll have your turn.

[Shakes her head.]

It's-it's FOOD.

Why full meals when we can just split it evenly, why would-

[chiming in with a blunt:]

We're not going to try and eat each other even if the food situation gets dire.
