* AfterTheEnd: [[AmbiguousEnding Maybe.]] There are a few obvious apocalyptic themes ([[ArcWords "This can't last forever" and "you can't ever go back"]]), and several mentions that it's been snowing for years without end and no-one seems to know why ([[spoiler: though the amount of ash being pumped into the atmosphere all the time may have something to do with it]]). Everyone is wilfully enslaved to their fireplaces for warmth and entertainment. [[spoiler: The sun is either ''way'' bigger or way ''closer'' than it ought to be and it's constantly in a state of half-rising, half-setting (implying the world has literally ''stopped spinning''.)]] And in the epilogue, [[spoiler: it turns out that it's ''still getting colder''. Miss Nancy tells us that the whole city is slowing down and wasting away, and soon enough it's expected to stop altogether and remain frozen forever.]] It's unclear whether the rest of the globe is in the same state, but if it weren't [[spoiler: why would Miss Nancy write off the entire planet as a lost cause and leave for space?]]
