You know it's hard. Something about how he doesn't act like she's some dumb kid who hasn't seen shit feels like breathing for the first time in a year. He hasn't even seen half of what she can do, he just accepts it. She wonders if he knows, or if this is another form of manipulation. When he starts telling her to do things, that's when she'll know what kind of man he is.
Everyone orders her around eventually.
"I don't wanna do that..." She says. Even when she was with Joel, she was surviving for a cure, so she could give a part of herself to help everything. It was the tiny nugget of hope she was clinging to, to make everything worth it. And with that gone, however it disappeared... She takes a breath, steep with emotion held back. "It's not... like that, where I'm from. People don't come for you. But... maybe it's like that here?"
