Halland's stiff posture eases just a little bit under Kakyoin's greeting. She'd slowed to a stop a few feet away from the pair as she called out to allow them ample time to register her presence (and for her to defend herself should their vigilance be on a hair-trigger following recent events), but carefully clears the remaining distance with a few efficient strides now that she's been acknowledged.
"…Of course. Monsieur Iggy is here as well, my apologies." She inclines her head in acknowledgement to said canine (Halland thinks with a little displaced and exasperated amusement that to defer to a dog in this way would have been an absurd concept just a few weeks ago; but it has been a very strange series of events indeed, and this is now only about the fourth most absurd adjustment she's had to make to her life). She opens her mouth to elaborate, but Kakyoin's next words head her yet-unvoiced caution off at the pass.
Even so, it's dangerous for those who have been recently recovered to be sitting out here alone. There are few things more merciless and cruel than an opportunist, and that man's ranks are full of such cowards. Kakyoin knows this, though. Iggy, too. She doesn't need to say it, and it won't dissuade them from their goal to rejoin the group, either (not that Halland intends to try to steer them elsewhere). Just as she's mulling over what she can say that may be in any way helpful, Kakyoin speaks again, and his gratitude takes her off guard.
...Perhaps it shouldn't, though. Kakyoin seems to be a well-mannered young man, especially one-on-one. Maybe she's still getting used to conversing with any of his group more directly, compared to the start of the journey where she'd staggered herself a little ahead, behind, or off to one side in an attempt to cut off encroaching danger from at least one angle, where she could, and gathering information where she could not.
"...Of course." Halland says, a little stiffly, eyebrows raising from their concerned scrunch to something a little more puzzled. "It's not as though I'd leave you there when I knew specialized care and a safer environment to receive it could be provided to you. There's no need to thank me for doing my job." You're very young to have gone through this, she considers saying. It's cruel that you had to at all. But these, she thinks (or hopes), are also things Kakyoin knows, and her saying so wouldn't be constructive at all.
Halland clears her throat, feeling suddenly uncomfortable at the insistent twinge of sympathy, and opts to sink to one bended knee beside the two of them. She looks them both over, stern-faced and earnest. "...You're feeling quite well? Or, as well as you can, given the circumstances? I don't suppose I should look at Monsieur Iggy's leg to see if there is any treatment that should be re-applied?"
