Don't get wet, and insulate.

How to keep warm in the cold! Or... just help yourself to some survival blankets.

"An' no matter how temptin' it is, don't light no fires in abandoned buildings just 'cause you think no one will see it," Ada offered. "That's how y'die of suffocation or asbestos gases or a la flambe."

"Oh, shit yes," Sparkle agreed, nodding emphatically. "Please don't kill yourself with fire. You won't die cold, but you will die, holy shit."

HE DID NOT WANT HIS STUDENTS TO DIE OF FIRE.

"Straw does make a good insulator, though," she said thoughtfully. "Though you'd have t' steal bales somehow. Pilfering a few handfuls from some yuppie's manger scene on their lawn might not be too hard."

Ada, please stop enabling your peers into petty larceny.

Seriously, there are a million other things he could say, but he's wordvomited away all the time he has for lecturing, so he'll be here if you have more questions.

Having headed south -- in July -- when she left the warm embrace of her mother's apartment, this was one Tip didn't have much direct experience with. She'd been doing the opposite, making sure not to overheat driving across the Deep South from Florida to Arizona.

So she was taking copious notes today. And ducking her head at the "cover your head" part of the lecture, remembering all the times she'd fussed at her mom about wearing a hat because it would mess up her poofs.
