Some things never change, even in the middle of a battle. It gives Kaylee more relief than she really cares to admit, hearing that bit of sheepishness back in Jamie's voice. He's still Jamie, even if stress levels are high.

Strange, how suddenly significant little things like that seem once you've been trapped inside a nightmare for days.

"We can always hope you did." The likelihood that it hit in one shot isn't very high. Who knew if the gun was even aligned properly at this point? Plus the rain, wind, shelter of whoever was firing on them isn't likely, maybe, but hope never hurt a person. They need more of it, right now.

Silence is broken all too soon by returned fire. Not as close, maybe, but still far too close to be comfortable. Kaylee urges the tank on, shelter spotted ahead. She prepares herself for the next blast, and once Jamie has fired she points out the shelter to him. "Just gotta hold 'em back til we get there, alright?"
