Perhaps he shouldn't be surprised there was a certain someone waiting for him on his return. Judging from the camping equipment, she'd been there for a while, too. He can't blame her, though, he would have likely spend the time waiting for her, too, if things were reversed.

He's glad they aren't. Mukuro didn't need more death. Of course he wished he hadn't died either, but he doesn't regret saving that civilian either.

Without saying anything at first, Makoto closes the distance and hugs Mukuro. It's both to his own benefit and hers, since he needed something to prove himself he was really back. And honestly, with the last few days he's had he really needed this.

"I'm back. Thank you for waiting for me."

He's a little bit bolder than before, which is probably good considering how awkward of a couple they have been about showing affection. Though he'll still get easily flustered, really.
