[As they run, Maya takes a moment to stare at his outstretched hand like she's not sure what to make of it--- he's the second man, now, that's tried to hold her hand since she's gotten here -- and she still doesn't understand why. Does she seem so pathetic that Jin and this man with the weird Swedish accent feel compelled to comfort her? Is this a normal thing for their team, holding hands with each other? What is this "team" they're supposed to be, really...?]
[She shouldn't take that hand. Now's not the time to fall apart -- to wait for a guy to swoop in and rescue her -- she has to be strong so she can help all these sick people. She shouldn't burden this man, when he's already occupied with getting them out safely. She shouldn't---]
[She cradles the rollerblades under her left arm, takes the offered hand and threads her fingers in his, sticking close, and feels her breathing even out a little.]
....Um.. I only got half of that.... [that thick Swedish accent and all!!] B-But I agree! We need to get through the crowd! We need to.... activate the sprinklers, or throw Easter decorations, or... something!
