[ because this is what you usually say in such situations, Ellie's learnt. Not really used to this whole phone text thing. ]

[stucktogether]

that should be more than enough, thanks.

[ why are you doing this? She feels like asking, but suddenly, it doesn't seem so important. The fact that he makes the effort, does.

... though actually ]

trying to make up for that horrible first impression?

[ she totally saw that convo with Joel, okay ]

like i care about that
u waited a long time 4 him
its stupid if hes just gonna get infected
n be useless now that hes here

[stucktogether]

a couple of stitches, but no complications aside from that, so... guess it still counts as being lucky. it sure seemed bad at the beginning, though.

you're still waiting, right? for somebody.

[badbreak]

oh ok
no
not really waiting
i hate waiting
im working on getting outta here

[Giraffes are one thing, but the entire fucking zoo is on the loose. The last thing he wants is for her to run into a lion or a gator.]

Ellie? You're staying inside, right, kiddo?

voice

[stucktogether]

[ She sounds somewhat confused when she picks up. ]

Um, yea- [ wait a minute ] ... Oh, that. Checking if I haven't befriended any lions, huh?

[inviable]

You got it. [There's a shifting sound in the background like he might be walking around and incessantly checking different spots.] I know you've never seen a lot of these animals before, but I'm sure I don't have to warn you to keep your distance.

[Except he's doing it anyway.]

[stucktogether]

[ You're underestimating her sometimes, Joel. ]

Hold on for a second. Don't... don't tell me you're actually gonna hunt those things.

[inviable]

Maybe just the one.

[What the hell did that mean? It's a mystery. Mysterious and hypocritical.]

[stucktogether]

[ She's unable to read his mind, but she can sure as hell guess, and the conclusion doesn't make her too happy. It's not like she doesn't trust him; this just doesn't seem... fair, you know? ]

Oh, great. Leave it to me to lock myself up, while you go 'round playing a fucking hero.

[inviable]

That ain't what I'm doin'. [His drawl is a little annoyed, like he doesn't know how to counter the accusation right away.] I just figure you've had enough excitement for one lifetime.

[In the end he comes up with something that can be easily turned back around on him. What the hell was he actually doing?]
