Her eyebrows flew up, a choked laugh escaping her before she could stop herself. He was forever joking, she would have wondered if he was even able to say anything serious, if she hadn't heard it once or twice. When it came to himself though, he was never serious, and she wondered at it. A question about it was on the tip of her tongue, and would have been out of her mouth too a few precious days ago. But not today. Not right after everything that had just happened to her, and to everyone else.
Realising Conlan was looking at her questioningly, Jill shook her head slightly and smiled at him. It seemed ridiculous that an hour ago she had been livid, he was fine, they were fine and the only way to go was forward. Hadn't that been her motto the last eight years after all? "Don't like people complaining, do you?" Starting towards their temporary camp, Jill easily fell into pace beside him.
