[Beth is perfectly pleased to act like she didn't hear his first question. The way he asks that makes her mind race. If he has to ask if things are dire, that means they aren't as dire where he's from. And if that's true, does that mean there aren't walkers all over? Or does that mean she's so far away from it all that the people here haven't been impacted?

Her mind is racing and she can't stop on exactly which train of thought she'd like to voice first. Instead, she clings hold of the fact that he's just reassured her he has weapons. That's good. It means they'll potentially survive the night.

If you don't wanna share, that's all right. If anyone attacks, I'll distract and you go for the kill.

[She's been used as bait before. She might as well keep her stellar bait record going.

They're nearing the far edge of town now, and Beth begins to make her way down the small embankment of bush and trees that act as a barrier inside. She gets a few scrapes in the process, but it's nothing that she pays any attention to. She's too busy trying to take in every last detail of the quiet and seemingly empty town. Her eyes go straight to every window and doorway, looking for any signs of guns or traps that might trigger handmade explosives.

She doesn't see anything, and so she motions for him to move on ahead. She'll follow his lead from here on out.
