Day of Salvation's fall...

You arrive at the outpost early in the morning before anyone should be awake. Violet is on the roof, watching when you arrive. She spots you and waves.

Clem: Can you go check up with her? I would, but I don't want to risk climbing up the ladder.

You: Yeah.

You feel invincible. Salvation can't beat you. No one can.

You climb onto the roof.

Violet: Sup?

You: Clem wanted me to check-in. Make sure everything is going alright.

Violet: No problems yet.

You: Good.

Violet: Where'd you go?

You: Um... Just out.

Violet: I just wanted to see what your excuse was. I know where you went.

You forgot Clementine told her. You're embarrassed knowing that she knows.

Violet: How was your night?

You: Good.

Violet: That's it?

You: I don't really feel like talking about it.

Violet: Alright.

You: But it was good.

Violet: I'm happy for you two.

You: Thanks.

Brooklyn: Haha!

You turn around as Brooklyn climbs onto the roof.

Brooklyn: Buddy!

You: Don't.

Brooklyn: I hurried over as soon as I heard you were back.

She throws her arm over your shoulders.

Brooklyn: Congratulations.

You: I wish Clementine would have told someone else.

Brooklyn: Nonsense.

You: Please don't go around telling everyone.

Brooklyn: Trust me, they know. But I won't talk. They could torture me, and I'd still stay silent.

You: I don't think it'd be that serious.

You shrug her off your shoulders.

Brooklyn: So, how'd it go?

You: Good.

Brooklyn: That's it?

Violet: That's what he told me too.

Brooklyn: Details.

You: No.

Brooklyn: Just a little bit?

You: No.

Brooklyn: I'll just talk to Clementine then.

You: If she tells you anything.

Brooklyn: She will.

A few hours later...

Clem: Hey.

You're sitting in a jeep, sharpening your knife.

You: Hi.

Clem: So, uh. Brooklyn asked me about last night.
