Sabine returned the kiss with such passion that she didn't even seem to mind those around her. Once the kiss ended, she remained in Peiter's embrace and simply smiled while leaning her forehead against his. She could feel her worries about Peiter's wellbeing begin to melt away. However, there were some things that wouldn't cease to be noticed. Notably, that Sabine only had one arm around her.

Sabine sat up to be seated next to Peiter, even if there wasn't much space between him and the other casualties. Her eyes couldn't resist glancing at the bandaged stump that used to be Peiter's right arm. Sabine hesitated. "Does it hurt?"

Tzirret had thought ahead, so he showed surprisingly little hesitation as he smiled and gave Ma'tanza a hug. Seeing as they were moving, he didn't hold her for too long. He let her go and began walking beside her and everyone else. "This one just wanted to check on everyone. Especially S'nishi," Tzirret said, leaning forward and looking at S'nishi's wounds before straightening again. "With Peiter and the healing he has not had...wait, 'can' he talk?" Tzirret gave a quizzical look. "Is there something Ma'tanza wants to speak to Tzirret about?"

The mood that Gallus had left the healers tent with was painted all over his demeanour as he walked along the caravan. He was going up and down, inspecting the supplies to make sure they were all secure. He was anxiously sipping on a waterskin that dripped with a green potion when Meesei spotted him. He seemed slightly surprised when they made eye contact, but his exhausted and stressed face quickly took over again by the time he reached the back of Meesei's cart and began to follow along.

"What happened to you?" Gallus asked with a frown. "You look like you've been reborn in comparison to last night. Sorry I didn't visit before we left, I assumed you'd need the rest and..." Gallus looked to the cart behind him. "There's always more work to be done." Gallus exhaled with some force and took another sip of his potion.
