Mr. Hawk, will you please come back to the house? I found a solution to our problem.

I've sealed my gas mask on permanently so I don't have to talk to you again or be strange. I'll just be a normal Pyro again, you don't even have to think of me as a girl if you don't want to. Just think of me as a boy--or even better, an it. I'm fine with that, really. Just come back, please?

Saying that much through a simple embrace, however, wasn't likely to be a successful endeavor.]

[Pyro decided the best thing she could do was be silent and go to sleep. Sniper looked like he needed rest after everything she had put him through that night.

Wrapped up in his warm embrace, it became easy for her to drift off into her own dreams. There was something safe and secure about those arms she had long forgotten from others in her past.]
