On the Red Line, After the War

Toasted Cake 169: On the Red Line, After the War by Andrea Tang


Episode #169! In which we stay on the red line for like a really totally annoying long time.


When the invading hordes sack your city and raise triumphant flags over the monuments like a pledge to tackiness, the underground metro is simultaneously the best and worst place in the world to be.
