[ she's quiet for an awkwardly long moment because she already said thanks and doesn't want to say it again.

there's some gratitude, even if it's still mixed up in a lot of guilt and frustration. ]

We have enough information that things don't look as bad as they did before. As long as we don't get complacent thinking it'll all work itself out without our own efforts, there's room for some relief.

An ending is an ending.
