Interlude 04 | Aestas ¤ The Yellow Balloon
Lilit floated into the mess hall looking for something to calm her frazzled nerves. Even though she knew by heart every single prepackaged meal, snack, and drink that came out of the dispensers, she still went looking through the bins hoping to find a surprise. Eventually, she settled on a pouch of the same weak decaffeinated green tea she had chosen dozens of times before and cracked the built-in heating element at the bottom to get it somewhat warmed up—though certainly not hot. Watching her flexible carton slowly begin to reheat, she wondered how long ago it had been originally brewed before it was vacuum sealed. Sadly, she had a pretty good idea that it had been at least several years, and it did not make her look forward to choking it down, especially considering her upbringing on almost entirely fresh food.
