Phil laughs and puts his seatbelt on, nodding. "Sounds good so far. You'll want to turn left here and head back into town."
Riding along with Rayne, Phill keeps his eyes and ears open for anything strange in the car, but everything seemed to be running fine. Making a few wisecracks, he checks out the air conditioner and heater, along with the radio. One of the few JetStream songs they played on the local station happened to be on, which made it doubly fun, and Phil pointed out that it had been recorded long enough ago that they could hear Kyle on the keyboard.
"Okay, one more left here, and you'll see the auto shop," he directs, gesturing down the street. "If Axel's not working today, we can ask another mechanic to take a look or confirm what work was done on it."
The nurse smiles kindly and agrees. "I'll get the things for you. You can go ahead and move that chair out of the way so there's room for the cot." She knew they didn't normally do this for visitors... but it was a quiet floor and she had a soft spot for those wanting to be close to their loved ones.
It doesn't take long for the nurse to return with the roll-away cot and an extra blanket for Ryder too. Getting everything settled, she checks on Ryder one more time before leaving for the night, turning down the lights.
