"Not 1306. I don't want to go in there." The words break as he says them. "Doc and Malcolm--we can't find them. We..."

He shivers, and keeps shivering, but he'll let Daisy lead him wherever she wants him to go.

Just not there.

"Me, Raylan, Negan, it got all three of us." He slips a little in the snow as they walk, trying to stay close to her, sounding confused to his own ears. He swallows down bile. "Me first. I thought--I thought if I could--"

He laughs, and it's incredulous, and for a moment Neal just wants to slap himself for being so mystified. He wants to shake himself, he wants to punch himself, he wants to put his own head through a window. Bitterness snakes its insidious feelers into his words. "I thought I could help them. I thought..."

But it was there, waiting. Just waiting for him to turn around and realize it was already too late.

Neal pushes away from Daisy, dropping to his knees in the snow and throwing up.
