She involuntarily raises a hand and covers her mouth, shock still driving her motions but relief starting to set in. After a quick moment she lowers it again. She doubts she can ever laugh about this. God the two of them are such a mess. God damn it, Alex...
She should leave- before it gets worse, before she sets him off again. But the thought of what he might do, alone, when there's no one there to stop him... She's not prepared for any of this. She doesn't know what to do. Is it right to invite him out for tea and coffee? Would that help, or would it seem intrusive and out of pity? If she offers to just leave, would that seem careless and insensitive?
But there's one thing she really, really wants to ask, though she does it slowly and with a nervous voice. "Are... are you going to keep that?" She points at the gun.
