Mary...

[Quatre blinks for a moment before offering a smile.] We're not even at all, you're right.

We're friends, so that sort of thing doesn't even come into it. It's natural for friends to help each other, so there's nothing about being even or otherwise.

[immobileyes]

... Quatre...

[ There's a pause... before she slowly smiles and shakes her head. ]

Mm, you're right. I'll still keep doing my best to help you just as much as you've helped me, though.

[colonially]

Then, I think you're already doing a good job of that. Honestly, it really helps to have found someone I know here.

[The buddy system is a glorious thing, okay? Teamwork will save us all!]

[immobileyes]

Just that? [ Even though she pretty much threw herself at him as a muddy mess-- ]

[colonially]

Of course. It's always helped me, to be with someone I trust in a new situation.

[Muddy hugs and all.]

[immobileyes]

[ She knows he trusts her, honestly, but still-- to hear it makes Mary brighten, quietly pleased. ]

Yeah... finding you helped me, too.

[ Not just because she's incompetent. ]

[colonially]

[Of course he trusts her. How could he not, look at her face seriously, especially when she brightens up like that.]

Then I'm glad!

[and she's not incompetent. She just hit a stretch of bad luck.

Speaking of luck. Was that just a noise in the bushes? ...maybe they should go this way. Quatre doesn't say anything, just changes course, nudging at Mary gently.]

[immobileyes]

...?

[ She's pausing, glancing at him quizzically. Sorry, friend, she noticed that-- ]

Quatre...?

[colonially]

Hmm? I think we might be better off going this way. It looks more promising.

[It's fine. It's good. If there's any trouble, he's got this, Mary. Not to worry. He won't let his friend get eaten.]

[immobileyes]

It all sort of looks the same to me... [ SHE'S REALLY IMPRESSED. ]
