Though she was hungry, Rita didn't give her food any consideration. Instead, she retrieved her nightshift equipment and began organizing her belonging for the coming night. Her backpack was set on her bed, and her radio was stuffed inside. A pair of rolled-up talismans were placed in an outer pocket for easy access.
