Throughout the winter so far, Rory and Ashlyn had settled into something like a comfortable rhythm. Comfortable, at least insofar as the apocalypse was concerned. They'd even found some time to make their own real fun, playing D&D with Jake over the radio and trying out increasingly ambitious food preservation techniques with the waning bounty of the area's slowly withering produce. Winter would soon yield to spring, and then they'd have to start thinking about some more sustainable practices for their new-found existence and ongoing survival.

Unfortunately, the season wasn't the only thing changing outside of the four walls of the Mills' house.
