[Oh hell, that makes their treatment of Josh even worse. Jesus. He runs a hand through his hair, exhaling, trying to find a calm place. ]
She's ok. She's been though some...really nasty shit, but she's okay.
[He leaves out the whole bite and Mike going to shoot her thing. No one could pay him enough to be the messenger for that piece of information. ]
Wendigos. That's what those things were. Actual fucking monsters. There was this old guy living on the mountain who's been fighting them for years.
[He tries not to think about the last time he saw the old man. The guy's head rolling about in the snow. That's something to add to his nightmare collection for the rest of his life. ]
She-- Jess was pretty messed up, man. She fell down into the mine, just like me. Hell, I saw Emily fall. I thought she might have-- fuck. [he rubs at his eyes. So much to process he feels like he's still just trying to breathe. But Emily's alive, so that's one weight off his shoulders]
Wendigos. Great. [he's not sure if he feels better having a name to put to the thing. And Chris said "them", like there was more than one. Matt lets out a slow breath. He and Jess got away from one, which in itself was a miracle for how beaten up they were. If the others had to deal with more...]
Remind me to send that guy a thank-you card. [Matt no]
[That would explain why Mike was so adamant she was dead. He's so glad she isn't, that she's got out of this. Jess isn't one of his favourite people in the world, but she didn't deserve any of this. None of them did. ]
She's fine, man, I promise. [As fine as any of them could be. Emily always came off as an indomitable force in her own right. If anyone could swing themselves back from this, he'd put his money on Emily doing it first. ] Nothing takes her down.
[Matt, seriously, no. He visibly flinches. ]
He's dead. I saw it happen. Those things just [he makes a vague gesture with his arm] it was a fucking mess.

If he hadn't shown up, we'd of all been screwed.
