"The silence is deafening."
I never really understood what that meant.
Silence? Deafening?
That's the literal opposite of silence.

It doesn't make sense.
At all.
Except out here.
No one talks.
Why does no one talk?
Is there some huge conspiracy?
Do they all talk behind my back?
What if they've disabled my comm?
Oh God.
I need to check.
Um. Um.
Communications!
Right here.
Uhh let's see.
No.
No.
Not that.
Huh.
Huh.
Comms are up, running perfectly.
Why does no one use them, then?
