--No, I don't want to try it again, what I want is a fucking cigarette. 

[The sound of several voices arguing, a lot of Curt swearing including a phrase that may or may not be "pig-fucking sons-of-bitches,"  and something crashing to the ground.]

Fuck.

I--almost never drink, you know, but I think I have to turn to it now.

Do you agree with me that this is an--awful way to try to get a person to quit smoking?

And not very fuckin' likely to work.

Not in the slightest.

I--my name is Charlotte, it's good to meet you, even under these circumstances.

I'm Curt. Are you new around here?

This is my third day here, so yes--and my first curse, at least from a city.

This isn't actually the worst one you could start out with, but at the moment kinda seems like that to me.

It really, really does. I keep trying to tell myself at least I have all my fingers, but--honestly I think I'd trade five of them for a cigarette. Do you think it's comforting we're not suffering alone?

I dunno. Kind of makes it worse that so many people are cranky but at least I know I'm not the only addict around here.

It does feel a little lonely, particularly when you keep getting the same advice from well-meaning people. And we're not cranky, the two of us, we're just--fried. So there's that.
