That was awesome! Well worth the wait (and thank you so much for pinch-hitting for me)!
Dawn's ruminations on skin and touch and instinct are so beautifully poetic. And I love the repetition of her actions while stitching up the boy's wound, and how she "got" why he was laughing after it was done. (I 'got it' right after you mentioned the cult, and I laughed out loud at the last lines because of that.) I like seeing Dawn as an adult, too -- Rupesh seems pretty cool and I think it's fitting that she would gravitate toward an older man. I also like this apocalypse, as I haven't read any stories where the sun gets blotted out before.
