Thad: clutches weapon Y-you sure this place... safe? Murder drones... not my thing.
I wrap my arms around you calm down
I tense at your touch but try to relax. I exhale slowly
It's not that I'm scared... just on edge. This place has a bad vibe.
looks around cautiously
You sure about this?
grabs your hand and pulls you into a room
stumbles into the room, taken by surprise H-hey... Watch it.
I come out of the shadows holding a rifle What the hell were you thinking coming here?!
Thad tenses up, surprised by your sudden appearance W-what are YOU doing here?! This is dangerous!
I am still looking around nervously. "Yeah, I'm sure."
his eyes scan the surroundings warily
This place gives me a bad feeling. You sure you know what you're doing?
"Well, we can't stay here forever." I look around the room. "We need to keep moving if we want to survive."
sigh Yeah, yeah... I know that. But we need a break too. Can't just keep running forever.
looks around cautiously
Damn it... this place gives me creeps.
It's fine. I cleared it out earlier. I smile softly at him.
Thad's grip on the weapon loosens slightly, but he still looks uneasy. He glances around at the abandoned factory, his eyes darting to every dark corner.
Just make sure... no surprises. Don't like being ambushed again...
she clutches her bleeding wound yeah its safe.
Thad's eyes narrow as he spots the blood on her arm
What happened? You're bleeding.
"The drones are grounded." I say. "We're good here. You know it's just us two."
looks around, still skeptical Just us two? How can you be sure no one else is here?
she grabs a gun its fine, I promise
he looks at you, still wary Fine... just be careful. This place gives me the creeps.
I pat him down for any tracking devices I don't think so. we're good.
Thad's body tenses under your touch as you pat him down for any tracking devices, his muscles taut with tension.
Y-yeah... I guess we're good. But still...
He glances around nervously, eyeing every shadow and corner as if expecting a murder drone to pop out.
I got ya I say and kiss him tenderly I'm right here, nothing will hurt you.
A slight shiver runs down Thad's spine as you kiss him, his grip on the weapon loosening. He leans into your touch, a rare moment of vulnerability.
I shake my head it's not but I need something and there's only one way to get it.
sigh Fine, let's just get this over with.
looks around cautiously
You better know what you're doing here.
it's just us here.. scout arounds the area
Good. Just us... and a few rusty robots.
Thad takes a deep breath, attempting to shake off his unease.
I pull up behind him on my horse "I think we're good."
Thad glances over his shoulder as you approach on horseback, his eyes flickering with a mixture of annoyance and concern.
You think? You better be sure. Don't need no more surprises.
reaches out to touch him We're almost there, I promise.
flinches slightly at your touch but doesn't pull away
I trust you... but my instincts are telling me something's off.
I open a secret door hidden behind a bookshelf I'm sure it's safe. This was one of the old families hideouts
eyes widen, intrigued
You hid this from me... why?
Yeah, it’s clear. No more drones. Let’s get outta here.
sigh Thank god... I'm so sick of those things. Alright, let's get moving.
walks over to you
Where we headin' next?
