[He does accept her aid as a much more stable crutch (though boy, she's tall huh?) as they start hobbling towards the town, after he stoops down to grab his hoverboard and re-attach it to his coat. She can probably feel his whole body hesitate when she mentions healers, though.]

I don't have money for that. [Zaun works mostly by bartering and making deals, but he knows that Piltover doesn't. This isn't Piltover, of course, but he figures it's better to give her that warning up front rather than let it become a problem that needs to be solved violently later. You know, as sometimes happens.

Either way, at Vi's name he perks up. Maybe he shouldn't, considering what he thinks he's going to have to tell her about what happened on that bridge (while knowing now that she was right, and that's definitely the worst), but things are so weird right now that he'd take it to see another familiar face.

Speaking of which, though, he glances up at her out of the corner of his eye. He imagines that their mission got a whole lot harder after the bombs on the bridge, distinctly shaped like Firelights. As always, Jinx is a menace.]
Did you guys get the gemstone to the Council? Are they going to stop hunting my people? [That wasn't the Council, it was the Enforcers going rogue for a payout from Silco (a bunch of which are dead now thanks to Jinx' Firelight bombs), but Ekko isn't generous enough to differentiate between them at the moment.]
