This they set up in the centre of the bare living room, directly under the non-working fan. Along with the one remaining chair from a dining set and a spare stool.

On a worn, salvaged ottoman, still damp from being in recent rain, they set up a pair of Corelle bowls. Mismatched sets of wheat straw plastic utensils.
On the table, they set up a Tommy Cooker. The wind blew through the pane-less windows and the makeshift curtains of painter's tarp that they had tied to the curtain rod with zip ties.
The lighter did not spark the first several times that they flicked it. Eventually, it produced a small flame, and the wind wound down enough for them to set the solid fuel alight in the cooker's maw. As the fire built up, they balanced a camping pot filled with water on the jagged teeth.
