"I'm glad to see you," Beth answers, pointing her finger at Kili and then leaning in to press it against the tip of his nose. She's been told she's a bit of a melancholy drunk and she supposes maybe that's true, she only tends to drink in those rare moments when she feels truly sad and lost, as if there's nothing else she can do to escape it. Beth is prone to sadness, just like anyone else, but she isn't often prone to real melancholy. Not like this.

This only comes on when she really thinks about how much she's lost and how much she misses her family. She'd lost them all, one by one, over the course of just a few years. Back home in Georgia there's only Maggie left, Maggie and Glenn, and with the way things are going, she doesn't really think she'll ever see them again. Daryl and Carl and Judith are her family, too, Kili and Olive and all the people she's come to love in Darrow, but it isn't the same. They can't replace her mother and her father, they can't bring back Shawn.

"I drank some moonshine," she tells him. "It tastes awful."
