It's funny: Rick thinks he has a hard time engaging Daryl that way, but from Daryl's perspective, he has more physical contact with Rick than anyone-- maybe even Carol. He hugs Carol, lets her hug him, but it's Rick who he touches on the shoulder or pushes this way and that while creeping around, Rick who he absently brushes his hand against now and again. Little things that are normal and not worth noticing amongst normal people, but are significant to someone as skittish and repressed as Daryl.

"Reckon so."

It serves as an answer to the rhetorical - yes, they do things better together - and the actual question. Alright, one more go. He nudges Rick to go fetch the bolt, as per their agreement, and waits to nitpick his form when he gets back.

"You could do some more farming, assuming we settle in right," he says as he positions Rick's elbow. His tone is half-serious, half-teasing.
