[Beth's stunned to the point of silence when he steps out of the shadows. She's observant enough to note the longer hair and the look in his eyes. He sees her as some kind of living dead girl, and his tears tell her everything she needs to know. Her hold on her knife becomes shaky, to the point where she just lets it drop to the floor. She could say his name but that's really not needed right now. They know each other, and it's not like saying his name's gonna make this whole situation better for either of them.
