THE TOWN SQUARE.
[Page silently watches the church burn for a little while, once she's emerged safely from it, before turning away and heading to the town square to meet up with everyone else. It makes sense to rest here, as they did last week, after another town with another tragic story to tell.
At least that time, however, they'd all survived it unscathed.
Once she's made it over to the group, she drops her pack onto the ground and collapses next to it, staring at her feet. It's going to take a bit to...process all of that, and while she'd love to get up in front of everyone and make some kind of rousing speech, she just doesn't have it in her at the moment.
Instead, she'll look up from the stone of the square, eventually, casting her eye over everyone and saying (almost to herself)-]
...I hope everyone is all right.
[That is likely far from true, but...well. They're all alive, Wesker is dead, and that's something. She's trying her best not to look at that little tree-sculpture with the key around its neck.
OOC: Second verse, same as the first! Here's our post-event mingle post, to talk about what the hell just happened in there, lick our wounds, and beg forgiveness from...from Flower Girl. Top-level away; Page will have her own up, if you'd like to talk to her.]

We have things under control for the time being. [ If that weren't the case, he wouldn't be taking this break. ] You kept him alert and didn't get in the way as we did our work, so I'd say you did your part for the day well enough.
[ He looks her over after that, with a slight tilt of his head. ]
What's your relationship with him, anyway? You... what, worked together or something?

We're investigators. Gabriel is a monster hunter. It's something his family has done for centuries. I do research for him when he's on a case. This isn't the first time we've been in a life or death situation, but it's not exactly something you get used to.

[ You'd think you wouldn't get used to destroying universes either, but you sure do. ]
What kind of investigations are you doing? I don't generally think of monster hunting as an activity that requires much research.
[ To be fair, as a Tales character, he has a very different idea of what monster hunting entails. ]
