“"This way." He led her down the hall at a run, around the first corner, and they reached the locked stairwell. Teacake zipped his key off the ring(still loved that sound, no matter what else was going on), unlocked the door, and they pushed through, They bounded up two flights of stairs, reached the ground level, and he used his key to open the door there. They stepped out into the all-white hallway, never so grateful to be aboveground in their lives. He took her by the hand(Damn, she's got some soft skin, soft but strong hands, you can feel it, I wonder if that's from carrying her child around? nah, that'd make your arms strong but not necessarily your hands, how come she's got such strong hands? wait, focus, man, we gotta get out of here) and led her down the hallway, headed for the lobby.
(...) THE ELEVATOR DOORS OPENED AT THE FAR END OF THE GROUND-FLOOR level of Atchison Storage and Teacake and Naomi both screamed. They had taken the stairs specifically to avoid the disfigured, resourceful deer that seemed to know how to operate an elevator, and now that deer was standing right in front of them.
"How the FUCK?!" Teacake shouted at the deer, which took three shaky steps toward them, making a phlegmy hacking sound at the back of its throat.”
