Jester! [Surprise. Guess who’s not dead? Yeah, Molly’s freaked out about that too, but he’s not about to focus on that. Instead he’s going to focus on the fact that Jester is here, and apparently so are some of the others. Not everyone, which is worrying. But Jester is here, and it seems like she’s safe, so Molly shoves that concern to the side.] Gods, you have no idea how good it is to hear from you.

And, really, I think name-wise, the Mighty Nein sounds more memorable than Balance.
