We haven’t seen Team Cavedweller since the other day. Our own group has been talking with one another about the logistics of moving shop now that we’re set up in this house. Mostly, we’re all okay with the idea of relocating, and there are some pretty sizeable farms between here and there that would be solid choices to set up at, at least based on what we’ve seen in casual drives by. The issue we seem to be hung up on is when would we do it, and what do we need to do in the meantime to make sure this is the right decision?

There’s some trepidation coming from Mike and Joel about moving closer and become more tied into these people: both of them are excited, and concerned at the same time to be closer to a large group that will inevitably need medical care from them. It’s likely they’ll be pulled in a hundred times to address a thousand ailments, and that’s a lot to ask of them. As oathsworn healers, and good people, they’re gonna do it no matter what, and they’ll love doing it, but still... that’s a lot to ask. The burden of the medically skilled survivor in this world is substantial. So much responsibility, and so few supplies and resources to bring to bear.

I don’t think there’s any way we can dodge that though. I believe they have medical personnel there already. They brought up that they had plenty of medical supplies, and with the presence of local police, I would guess they had firefighters too, and that means EMTs. Maybe. First responders took this apocalypse right in the asshole dry as a desert early on, so maybe they don’t have any of those. But, it stands to reason with their lack of reports of internal demises, and in a cluster of communities of this size, they have at least some kind of medical staff.

Mike’s stated fears aside, Rachel is being sweet though. She says over and over that they need us closer because we can protect them, and she’s right. We’re good at protecting ourselves, and other people. I’m not sure they need our protecting (cue white American saviors showing up to save the world, complete with muscle-clad montage music) but the sentiment is nice. I should also clarify that “protecting,” is a 100% synonym for, “visiting wrath and destruction,” in our world. She’s such a good shit. Like I’ve said a bunch of times, she’s good people. I think she “married up,” meeting Mike, but it’s like the hooker with a heart of gold thing. She may have come from trouble, or a bad area or sketchy past, but fundamentally she has a good soul. I’m glad she’s with us. Even if she gives Hal the fucking creeps. It is what it is.

If any hookers read this after I’m dead, I’m sure many of you have hearts of gold.

Anyway, we’re gonna scope out some potential places to move in the
