Why was it specifically nine days?

So as you all know, every ending takes place nine days after the Kenny/Jane choice. But why is it specifically nine days? They could have chosen any amount of days (besides 1 or 2 as the Howe's or Wellington endings would seem a bit unrealistic), so why choose 9? The 9 day skip complicates the problem of AJ's food, you can assume they (or just Clem) found him food, but from where?

So, does the nine day skip have any relevancy at all, will they use it for something in the future, or will it just go unexplained?

  • 9 Days of Sorrow.

  • I think it's just to make things easier in season 3 if they bridge all the endings together, so that the same things don't happen on different days.

  • I...honestly assumed they decided on a random number.

    Well 3^2= 9

    Went from 3 people to 2 people

    It was foreshadowing obviouslyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

  • Why is there One ring? Why do some Christians think the world was made in Seven days. Why were Clementine and Christa alone for Two months? Why did they use 400 days? Why does 1+1=2? I don't know lmao.

  • THE NUMBERS! WHAT DO THEY MEAN?

  • Alone ending would have been better without the 9 day skip, it would show that things are much more dire when Clem has no one to take care of her.

  • Why God make the forbidden fruit in the first place?

  • Perhaps the 9 day skip, as well as the 16 month skip, will be the subject if there is a dlc for Season 2.

  • Because they just chose a random day maybe?

  • I don't know, but maybe it could mean......Half-Life 3 confirmed????!! :O

  • Yeah, but if 9 divided by 3 is 3, then Half-Life THREE is confirmed, where do you get your sources from skrub?

    I don't think so, 9 divided by 3, is 3. And a triangle has 3 sides. Illuminati once again confirmed? I think so.

  • Half life 3 will never come out, I thought we established that already. The illuminati has been confirmed by multiple sources INCLUDING me.

  • Because Season 2 was the story of a girl.

    Given that we don't need to know exactly what day it is and it hasn't really played a role outside of 400 Days, it doesn't seem to have any relevance and I don't see the need for it to be consistent. It could have taken 9 days to get to Howe's but only 3 days to get to Wellington. The alone ending could have been the next day.

    As it is, are we even all on the same day? Some options (like giving Rebecca more rest time) might shift the day if I remember correctly.

    So yes, it seems to have been random and does raise the AJ survival question, although I guess that's true for all the endings.
