But she does prop up a glass bottle against the door so that when it's pushed open she's instantly alerted.
She has her gun drawn before she's even fully turned around, and she levels it at-- somebody about her age. A girl.
Ellie's brow furrows in confusion, and she lowers the muzzle a little. Doesn't drop it yet. But it's something.]
