[ Cisco swallows hard, giving a small nod and not asking how, or who it was. Whoever helped, though, he is grateful. Maybe... one of them would show up here one day. It wasn't impossible. Time and death weren't really obstacles, when it came to the portal. And if they ever did... Cisco would thank them, for doing the right thing, and helping this kid, and others. ]
I'm really sorry to hear that.
[ They're just words; they can't fix anything and he knows it, but Cisco wants to say something, so she knows that he heard her and that their deaths matter to him. ]
None of them are here, though, are they?
[ It's just a guess, but a shrewd one. If there were kids who had survived an experimental facility like that, who had plotted to break out like that, who ended up together in another unpredictable and potentially unsafe scenario (though Cisco believes this moon is a hell of a lot safer than Earth ever was), they would stick together, right? They would be inseparable, out of survival instinct if nothing else.

Of course you did. They- they had no right. Not to do any of it.
