As she looked over towards him, she could see him salivating. He was hungry for this... and it was clear as day. He wanted it, truly wanted it, and he was about to seriously indulge himself.

"The red ribbon mark?" he asked.

"All right." he said.

"What'd you grab for yourself?" he then inquired.

"Also, fries, too? Daaaamn, I'll bet they're some greasy goodness, too." he chuckled at the end.

Ty got up and walked over towards the burgers, drooling slightly. He then stopped and looked at her, before sighing quietly.

"...Anya..." he said.

"Thank you. For this. For everything." he told her.

"And... I know you mentioned you'll be waiting for me to tell you who to do next, who to help next." he then said further. "Well... I mean, it depends on how YOU feel when you finish with me." he reasoned.

"If you can, get a read on who is the least affected." he went on.

"I suspect Blair will be a simpler one, as will Evan." he stated. "Then, possibly Jake."

Ty just nodded in response.

"All right." he said.

"Because I know this place needs a leader with his head on straight, first and foremost." he commented. "And I also know that, technically, there are 'more important' people that should be fixed up first, but we need quantity right now." he reasoned.

"The more people we have with clear minds and souls, the better, in this case. Regardless of position and crap." he continued.

"...also, you never cease to amaze, you know that?" he asked.

"Never would have guessed you to be capable to this sort of thing." he added, referring to what she'd been doing to help him.

"...." Ty was silent as he pondered that, blinking a few times.

"...huh." he then said. "That's... that's a good point." he admitted.

"All right, fair enough then." he said further with a small shrug.

"Still. Invaluable ability." he commented. "THAT much doesn't change." he stated, before shaking his head lightly.

"And I am going to make sure we compensate you for this." he then insisted.

Ty shook his head slightly, and took a bite of one of the burgers... to which Anya saw his face light up.

"Oh. MAN!" he exclaimed.

"This is SO DAMN GOOD." he declared.

"Seriously, I can see why Jake's been ordered off them, if the taste is anything to go by in relation to unhealthiness." he then commented, taking another bite of said burger.

"This is greasy HEAVEN."

Ty looked over towards the burger, and paused.

"Ah... yeah, my limits tend to be the jalapeno." he told her.

"Anything hotter than that, and I lose all the flavour, replaced with pain. Pain and burning." he said further.

"So. While I appreciate the offer... think I'll pass..." he mumbled.

"Or wait until I finish mine, if you want to save a nibble for me." he then said.

"And I STRESS a "NIBBLE"." he added quickly.

"Habanero?" Ty asked.

"Oh! Eh, yeah, sure." he then said.

"I've had them before. They kick my ass, but they makes me feel alive." he chuckled.

"I can deal with it." he assured her.

"Anything else is pretty much just... well... pain. And a dare. Usually a dare."

"This one seems to have some excellent barbecue sauce on it." Ty commented through a bite.

"Like, seriously. This shit's divine." he commented.

"There's a sweetness, a smokiness, it has it ALL." he told her.

"Never had a sauce so... full-bodied, before." he went on.

"I'll need to go there myself someday, JUST for this." he then laughed.

Anya could see it. 1, maybe 2 more sessions. He was allllllmost where he was before.

Ty took another bite of the burger, and then paused.

"...huh." he said.

"What?" she asked.

"This one seems to have caramelised onions on it." he commented, taking a peek inside the burger. "So it does!" he said. "Onions, mushrooms, barbecue sauce... this is tasty." he commented.

While he was too engrossed in the food to have properly answered her question, his comment then should have done it for her.

"Thank you." Ty responded.

"Again, for everything." he then said.

"I know it's still too early to REALLY be thanking people with... any sense of finality, but already, these are huge steps forward." he commented.

"...never thought Vanessa Encrae would be able to reach us through such technology, though." he admitted.

"Admittedly, I didn't think that sort of thing even POSSIBLE."
