Warnings: "... for some sex, lots of cursing, and the end of the world."
Why this must be read: I'm a sucker for post-apocalypse fics, but THIS FIC. It's sparse and beautiful and reads like a modern fable. I've read it several times! It's Frank's POV, and he's withdrawn and fierce and skeptical. Until he finds the boys in the trees...

12 months
He finds pebbles. A bullet casing, or two, or fifteen, depending on the spot he's searching. This time there's a quarter, a twenty-dollar bill, and two bullets. He skips the quarter out on the muddy river, holds the bill up in the sluggish wind and lets it blow away. He leaves the bullets behind.
