Summary
The rumbling should’ve scared him more than it did. It should’ve scared all of them, really. But, their recent spring rain was a blessing at the time, and the terracotta was a bit softer, a bit easier to gather up, and Joel didn’t really think much else about it.
He didn’t think about the way the supports in the mine creaked strangely, or the way the echoes of his fellow miners seemed to bounce off the walls just a little bit different than before. He didn’t think about the subtle shift in the air, at the time.
(On long nights, after the accident, sometimes Joel thinks he should’ve noticed. He should’ve seen the writing on the wall, should’ve been paying enough attention to realize that these things couldn’t have been coincidences. He should’ve known, he tells himself.)
By the time Joel had realized something was wrong, it was much too late.

Summary
In which Mumbo crosses several towns, learns some creative methods of self-defense, fights some monsters, sees things no human is meant to have seen, befriends a stranger, steals multiple cars, has inconvenient moral scruples, grows increasingly terrified of his own culpability in the apocalypse, grows a spine, blows up at least one building, accidentally prevents a murder, and attempts to find his best friend in the futile but ever-burning hope the man’s still alive.
He has to say, he’s so exhausted and terrified that he thinks he might just be mad?
(OR: the one where, after most of humanity turns into a series of terrifying monsters, Mumbo decides he’s going to risk his life on an apocalypse road trip to try to find out if Grian is alive. Things, as you might imagine, devolve from there.)
