[x] Find somewhere to bunker down for the night

Rested and Prepared people will make this all the smoother. That and, well, this place after dark in unknown territory sounds like a terrible idea
 
[x] Find somewhere to bunker down for the night

I feel like something's gonna hurt either way. As always.

Finding a place to rest proves somewhat difficult. It isn't that buildings are hard to find, but...well...

"Burger," your mount insists.

And from the drive-thru window, the saddest, wettest Corporate you have ever seen once again fails to get its grill to turn on. It's. It's crying. You're not sure where the tears are coming from. Your friend stamps four of her feet and repeats, "Burger!"

"...I think we should go," you murmur to her. "You're making the unholy abomination upset."

She whines and hangs her head, but she does say, "Sorry," before the two of you link back up with the other teams investigating the buildings here. The power is down in this section of the city, down-down; you can see the ruin where lightning bolts hit several transformers, which evidently obliged the unbridled wrath of the falling sky by exploding. You shudder, but all you need to do is find anywhere that isn't infested by a Corporate...

Nattie solves the problem, eventually, in the form of a strip mall whose names you do not recognize as anything national. It probably had a corporate landlord, once, but no sign of the drones inside. Still, sentries and watches are established as people spread out into the defunct businesses. The spiders waste no time in sniffing out leftover currency, gnawing it into shreds with a patience they had not displayed before joining your community.

Hey remember when the QM said there'd be more character scenes? Pick 2

Simple vote, simple choices. I like Jill and I like the spiders.
