He hits the throttle and sends them speeding away from the pissed off Wendigo-Josh and back through the Nexus. The fog is lifting the closer they get to the main drag of the Plaza but Josh doesn't slow down until they're on a street he recognizes. There's a food stall up the way Han likes to take him to now and again but it's much too early for it to be open. Josh parks the speeder and lets out a breath he wasn't aware he'd been holding. The world still feels fragile, like anything he reaches out to touch may shatter like the mirrors had. Bring out more monsters.
But Miles is alive. Josh had felt his heartbeat against his back. Felt the teen's nails dig into him to hold on.
He turns around and looks at the younger man. He's alive. Josh reaches out and places his hand on Miles' shoulder. It stays. He's Real.
