* PASSAGE DISCUSSION 14: Should I stay or should I go?

The lights will fail sooner than later and it will be impossible to protect the walls. I see no choice but to take the guns and go looking for more people. They need more numbers if they are to survive but with that being said , I would be scared shitless to go out beyond the walls lol
I would be supporting Alicia. It's surprising to me that the colony has survived almost a century, with so many people packed into a relatively small space. The Household obviously tried to keep everyone on a tightly regulated existence to keep things running smoothly, but unusual events have a way of bringing out everyone's suppressed emotions. It's amazing that Dark Night didn't completely break down the colony. It's a good thing they've got Alicia. What a woman!
I can't believe Theo just closed his eyes to the problem of the lights going out. I have to believe he had something up his sleeve. Given the facts I know, I would totally be Team Alicia on this, but then I'm one to confront problems head on as soon as they present themselves...
So, if you were a member of the colony: would you be supporting Alicia - in heading out with guns to find more people - or Theo - in staying and trying to keep the lights on and walls protected as long as possible?
