"I'm honored to say, I'm glad I that I had the chance to teach you what I knew." And Danse knew he was right about her, and despite not having a military background, he is still impressed. He continues to work on the bear, and he makes sure not to leave anything behind that can be put to use.

He smiles at the thought of a nice yao guai steak, or even some ribs later that night. It will be a lot better than some two hundred year old food that they brought along with them.

The smile vanishes for a bit as he remains crouching beside the bear and Nora, and he looks at her with a warm look on his face. "And now that things have calmed down, I think we both will have a chance to figure out what direction our lives will take." He still won't forget about Shaun, and he's going to see to it when they get back that he tries to bond with the kid.
