Atrium - Early Morning;
[After talking to Judy at one of the terminals, Alice figures she should probably share what she's learned with the others, so she'll linger in the atrium where she can see people coming and going and will clap her hands to get people's attention as they walk by.]

Hey, did you notice anything unusual about the voting results yesterday?

Classroom - Morning;
[And now, time to explore! Alice is feeling much better today than she has since coming into contact with the fountain water - it looks like enough time has passed that whatever caused it has cleared up. She's fine with that. She'll just avoid the fountain water as best she can from on...

It's with renewed vigor that she heads up the stairs to check out what doors might have unlocked! ...and, hey, it's a classroom. She doesn't seem all that surprised at the setup - one-room classrooms are pretty common where she comes from - and she'll start poking around, thumbing through the textbooks and then raiding the supply closet for paper and pencils.

If you happen upon her while she's stockpiling them, she'll gather them into her arms and shoot you a suspicious look.]


What are you looking at?

Indoor Garden - Afternoon;
[FRESH FOOD, PARTY TIME.

...which is to say, Alice is harvesting vegetables, because there's no way she's going to pass up getting to eat something that doesn't come from a can. She has a feeling that if she comes back tomorrow, someone else will have emptied the garden first.

She won't take everything - on the off-chance she's wrong, she'd like to be able to come back and get more in the future. But she is going for enough to make a decent meal. When she hears footsteps, she speaks without bothering to look from where she's pulling up a carrot.]


If you help me gather these, I'll cook dinner tonight.

Community Kitchen - Evening;
[Anyone coming into the kitchen around dinnertime will find Alice tending to a pair of pots on the stove. They're both simmering nicely, though the one on the left certainly smells a lot better. On the counter there's a half-empty can of evaporated milk, an empty tin of canned beef, and the remains of chopped and peeled vegetables which are most likely the ones she harvested from the garden earlier that afternoon.

The pot on the left seems to have some kind of a creamy vegetable stew - the one on the right is the canned meat, cooking in a vegetable broth for flavor. She doesn't really want to combine them in a single pot in case the canned meat's flavor throws off the flavor of the fresh vegetables, but it can be added to individual bowls to try it, and then left out if it turns out bad.

To anyone who comes in, she'll say the same thing initially - ]


The food's almost ready.

[Then she'll turn away from the stove to face her company. If it's someone who helped her harvest vegetables, one of her apartmentmates, or Elizabeth or Angel, they'll be treated to a smile.]

Grab a bowl and help yourself once it's done.

[If it's anyone else, though - ]

You can have some if you do the dishes so I don't have to.
