Last Man: Horror/Fantasy

The last man took his last drink of whiskey, looked around the saloon that he'd taken over as his home--in the early days, because he figured that if anybody else was alive and came through town, they'd for sure stop there, unless they were Seventh Day Adventists, in which case he didn't want to meet them anyway. In the later days, it was because he liked not having to walk very far to get his liquor. The booze helped. Sometime, when he drank so much he thought he'd die the next day, he even saw people. But that was dangerous, and he knew it, and he was the last man alive because he didn't do things that were risky like that, because he played the odds and knew how to actually build things and kill things and generally survive.

Inspiration: "Last Man Standing" by Hybrid, Phil staggering around this morning.
Story Potential: High.
Notes: And that's his motive for going traveling. No booze.
