[This is the moment where it would have been good to have a speech planned. It's not like she hadn't had the chance to think about it, when she heard that he stayed behind with Faith. But in the end, it's not a speech kind of moment.]

We're okay.

[That's all she had or needed to say, really. And it isn't just a "you could have died" thing. She got there before everything went crazy. But she didn't have a chance to say it.]

[cowman]

( That really is enough and it lifts a weight that's lived in his chest since they haven't been. He is not entitled to her being okay with him, she just is okay. They're okay. Waverly is family. Always. )

Is there anything I can assist with, any supplies needing to be gathered?

[stupetballs]

[She glances around, trying to get the lay of the land before answering. There's a lot that needs to be done, but she knows that there are some priorities.]

I think we're good here. Have you seen Ray yet?

[cowman]

His is my next stop. Does he have a tent?

( He, too, looks around them for the third familiar face he needs to see. He needs to return the gift that saved him from needing to be resurrected. )

[stupetballs]

I don't know. I haven't seen him since the boat.

[They weren't staying that close, but she remembers seeing him.]

But you should go find him. I've got things handled here.

[cowman]

( That does worry him, slightly. This is not the largest tent city. )

I will. Should you need anything, you know how to find me. And, if you see hair or hide of my hat.

( He finds it later on with the gathered belongings, but until then, he left it behind during the assault. Waverly would be able to recognize it should she come across it. )

[stupetballs]

[She makes a face before nodding her agreement. Doc really does need his hat.]

If I find it, I'll text you.

[cowman]

Do you know what became of Hella Shorty's?

( He was going to take a trip over one of these days. He doesn't know if the hotel is the only building that had damage done. )

[stupetballs]

[She makes a face.]

I was going to head over there next. I'll see what I can salvage, but I don't know how far the fight went into Hellburbia.

[cowman]

Let me know if you'd want me to accompany you.

( Strength in numbers. Should she wish it. )

[stupetballs]

[She shakes her head, because she should be fine.]

If it doesn't look sturdy, I won't go in. I just want to see what we're working with. You should go find Ray.

[cowman]

( He's already ahead of you. He also nods his head once before his eyes reciprocate she and him being okay before heading back out. )
