None More Black(out) | Hazel & Raven
When: March 15th, after 6pm Where: NY Subway, N train Who: @wintershcde
Hazel hadn’t been paying much attention as the subway chugged along, the only thing of note was how empty the car was. Bad weather was apparently keeping people inside and off the subway. Her phone wasn’t getting reception, but she was still able to listen to her downloaded music as she sat, chugging through stops toward her apartment.
The train stopped and all but one other passenger exited. Her eyes flicked up toward the man left on the car, he looked vaguely familiar (and vaguely intimidating) but he was on the other end and seemed to be ignoring her so she went back to her music. Or, she would have, if the lights inside the train hadn’t flickered and died as it lurched to a halt somewhere in between actual stops. Dim emergency lights came on but it was clear there was no power. Tugging her earbuds from her ears, she stood and glanced around hoping for some kind of announcement or explanation but none came.
“Uh...well,” she said, biting her lip. “I guess... we’re stuck? Not claustrophobic are you?”
