Meredith makes a noise of protest, but takes it anyway, if only for his sake, once she's in the truck. "I wouldn't know how to take the safety off anyway," she points out, smiling just a little. It fades a moment later as she leans toward him. "I'll stay put, I'll be fine. I'll be here when you get back." He will come back. He always has. That doesn't mean there won't be an exception one day, that they won't run out of time, but she won't think about that now. Not yet, at least. There are other things she wants to say, but they're in a rush and she doesn't want to hold him back. "Be safe."
