[ Maddy feels so lost. She wishes she could help him more, but she doesn't know how. Any of the advice she'd usually give feels woefully underprepared for his situation.

So, just because for once she doesn't know what to say, Maddy agrees. ]

Okay. [ She nods. ] Do we, like, take turns sleeping?

[solitarysoul]

Its safest to sleep in shifts. I can take first watch if you want.

[He is very tired, but he's so emotionally shut down he barely realizes it.]

[somethingintangible]

No. It's okay, Levi. I'll take the first shift. You get some sleep.

[solitarysoul]

...are you sure?

[Its probably safer right now, since they just fixed up things. It made more sense for her to stay up if he wanted to protect her. But he doesn't want to put her out if she's tired.]

[somethingintangible]

Yeah. Don't worry about it. Get some sleep.

[ Maddy gives him a small smile, hoping it's encouraging. She picks a station where she can easily see movement or somebody coming. At least the weather is clear and the moon is bright, making it easier to see at night. ]

If anything happens, I'll wake you up, okay? Promise.

[ She means that. She won't try to fight any advancing hoards on her own.

But since she doesn't know what to say to help, the least she can do is let him rest for a little bit. Besides, he's been doing all of the hard work. He's probably more tired than she is. ]

[solitarysoul]

Okay. I, um, I probably won't sleep long. I'll let you know when I wake up.

[He feels like he should offer her a smile or something, but he just doesn't have it in it. So he just nods and heads to bed.]

[somethingintangible]

Okay. Goodnight, Levi.

[ She'll just be here until whenever he does wake up, or when something happens that makes her need to wake him up. ]
