[At least he seems to believe her. That's good enough for now, and she figures they can figure out the rest in time.
Now she's found him, it's safe to say she's in no hurry at all to leave him any time soon. Being around other people at all is a bonus, that it's Zack makes it all the better - and even if he doesn't trust her, she trusts him well enough to think it to be worthwhile to explore together for a while.
Not that there's much she can do if he insists on leaving her behind. But she hopes it won't come to that.
When all she's finding are scraps of what were once food wrappers, Zack's find is a spot of hope she's not at all sorry for. Even so, there's a certain caution in how she takes the jerky from him, as though having to convince herself it's okay for her to take it.]
Thanks. I find anything useful, I'll be sure to return the favour.
[She doesn't like owing anyone anything, even someone she knows is unlikely to hold it over her.]
