Y/N POV

Me, Lee and Duck are currently investigating a broken flashlight and potential ''stolen supplies''.

Lee inspects the broken flashlight.

Me and Lee walk a little bit and notice broken glass.

Lee inspects the broken glass and finds that it fits the flashlight.

Lee: Hmm.

Lee inspects the X drawn on the wall near the glass.

Lee: Huh. Chalk.

Duck: Pink. Hmm.

Lee: Duck!

Duck: A clue!

Y/N: (deep voice) Maybe.

Duck: What do you think it is?

Lee: I don't think it's anything.

Duck: Maybe it's a sign!

Lee: It could be. It's pink chalk, which is weird.

Y/N: [deep voice] Good work Robin continue to look around for more suspicions.

Duck: Okay, back to investigating!

Lee: Is the Batman impersonation really necessary?

Y/N: [deep voice] Yes

Lee chuckles then we start walking again.

Lee notices other chalk drawings on the ground, one of which is pink, then looks to Clementine, who is currently using chalk.

Y/N: I doubt Clem did anything Lee.

Lee: Me too. I'm gonna go talk to Carley for a minute go play with Clem in the meantime.

Y/N: [deep voice] Yes Sir.

LEE POV

I climb the stairs to speak to Carley, who is leaning on the railing of the balcony.

Carley: Talk to Lilly yet?

Lee: Yeah. She thinks supplies have been walking away.

Carley: Really?

Lee: There's some broken equipment too. I'll look into it.

Carley: Thanks for doing that.

Carley: What I wanted to say was, I've been thinking a lot. About you.

Lee: I think about you too.

Carley: Our group is small.

Lee: You're small.

Carley: You're a convicted killer.

Lee: Carley, Jesus...

Carley: And I think people should know. Not because they deserve to and not because you're a bad man. I think the opposite of those two things. People need to know because we're hanging by a thread here and I can't see Lilly talk about you without thinking it's the next thing she's going to say. You don't have to tell everyone, but think about who you trust and take the opportunity while you have it.

Lee: You're probably right.

Carley: Of course I'm probably right.

Carley: Larry's gone, but he knew. If he didn't tell Lilly outright, he probably said enough to make her wonder. I'll tell you what I would tell anybody, apocalypse or not, there comes a time when you can get out ahead of something like this and discuss it on your terms. Do it before that chance is taken away.

Lee: I'll let people know. You're totally right.

Carley: Good. I think it's for the best.

Carley kisses my cheek and whispers in my ear.
