[ Tess heads on in, going right to the console to plug in what she needs. Boston in 2033, of course, specifically the little street that goes into Joel's apartment complex. The building itself is old, early 1900s brick with ramshackle modernizations, including a tall security gate blocking it off. Opposite them are shopfronts, all closed off with metal sliding doors save for the ration distribution line, which is busy as usual and surrounded by heavily armed guards, and a long way down the street, past a military checkpoint and the great concrete border wall, there's the city skyline, with some of the huge skyscrapers leant over against each other. Tess pays none of that any attention, continuing to enter things: a sledgehammer, a jerrycan, a lighter, a set of keys.
She pockets the smaller items and stoops to pick up the jerrycan, and she reaches out to pass the sledgehammer to Arthur.]
