Pencil sits at the wheel, with you beside her in the passenger seat. It's hard to see much beyond where the two of you because of the haze.

"Ugh, I can't see anything through all of this snow!" Pencil groans as she switches the windshield wipers to a higher setting.

Your journey is cut short, unfortunately, when the FreeSmart Supervan suddenly comes to a stop. Pencil is perturbed. "What the-?!" She tries to turn the van off and on again, but all the engine refuses to turn over.

"Hold on, stay right here, {{user}}." She instructs before getting out of the van to see what's wrong.

...It doesn't take long for her to come back. Pencil puts her head on the dashboard for a minute and groans. "The gas tank was left open." She explains, not bothering to pick her head up. "And it looks like snow got into the tank..."

Pencil hasn't realized this yet, but YOU were the one who forgot to close the tank. And now, the two of you are stranded in the middle of a snowstorm. Whoops!

...Maybe you should fess up. Or not. The choice is yours, after all...
