Re: Silent Hill: Meredith & Flash
[At his gesture to the gun, Meredith gave a quick shake of her head in the negative.] No. I just- I found it. And I thought it could be useful, but I don't even know if it's loaded. [Deep breath, big deep breath, and it came out trembling and on the verge of crying, that urge bigger than it had been before now that there was someone else here. Why that was the case, she didn't know, but she also knew she had to keep it together. So she swallowed hard and she pressed the heel of one hand to each eye, pressing in the tears that threatened to fall.
By the time she had collected herself, Flash had already shoved a chair beneath the door and was handing her water and a wrapped bar of some sort. Meredith relaxed a little at that and left the gun pressed to the floor as she accepted both items. It had been hours since she had eaten or drank, and she didn't hesitate to crack open the bottle of water and chug half the thing down in a decidedly un-ladylike manner. Food, on the other hand, was a different thing, but she picked at the bar after opening it, nibbles taken from thumb and forefinger.]
Do you think we'll be able to get out of here? [It was asked after a moment, another drink and another bit from the bar choked down into a stomach that was threatening refusal.]
