Alex stated after I finished up that we'd pick it up in the morning. I agreed, it was getting on after 11 pm. We stopped recording, saved the files, and I shut the house down for the evening.

We had been 'dating' for all of two years before the riots broke out proper, and two days before we left, We mutually proposed to each other. It was kind of awkward, actually...
