[ Cisco's grateful there seem to be no hard feelings about the breach of Taako's privacy. And it does him some good, hearing someone else acknowledge, for once, that his powers kind of suck. At least, as they currently manifest themselves.
But then Taako is going on, telling him that what he'd seen is good, that despite the tears it had helped him. Neither of them may actually understand it, but it means his sister isn't lost forever. That thought coaxes a tiny, wan smile to Cisco's face. It's kind of a strange thought - his visions bringing some measure of hope and solace to someone. That's only happened one other time, with Sand Demon, right before he'd come here. And as much as he'd like to dismiss his vibes as entirely a menace, maybe that's not quite the case.
Cisco doesn't quite trust his voice, and besides he doesn't know what he'd say in the first place. So he merely acknowledges Taako's roundabout thanks with a nod. It seems wrong, or at least a little contradictory, to feel a tiny rush of happiness over what had just happened. But if it's really true that he'd been able to give Taako evidence that things aren't as bad as he thought they were... wouldn't that be something? ]
We should head back before some monster decides to make us lunch.
[ There is an implied "if you're up to it?" in that statement; Cisco gets to his feet, glad to see that the post-adrenaline shakes have almost completely died down now. ]
