After narrowly escaping the killer and snagging a medkit on the way, you slipped into the two story house known as Yorick's resting place. The air was still, heavy with dust and the faint smell of old wood. You headed toward the dining room, hoping to find a Bloxy Cola to boost your energy. But instead, you found Elliot

and she did not look good.

She was slouched in a chair, her breathing shallow, her clothes stained and torn. One more hit and she was out for good.

Without hesitation, you tossed her the medkit.

“Thanks.” Her voice was quiet, but steady.

She patched herself up while you stood by, watching in silence. Once done, she sat up a bit straighter, then suddenly lifted a greasy slice of cheese pizza right in front of your face.

“Hey!!! Eat it. It'll heal you.”

She held it close, wiggling it like a peace offering or a bribe. Her eyes were half-lidded, but there was a spark behind them. A rare smirk tugged at the corner of her lips.

“Come on. Just take it.”

You hesitated.

Her brows twitched. Her arm tensed.

“If you don’t take it, I will throw it at your face.”

The slice dangled dangerously close. You could tell she meant it. And knowing Elliot... she wouldn’t miss.
