[If he knew, he'd consider himself lucky to have a girlfriend who's anxiously awaiting his return. In fact, it feels sort of like the old days during the Kharlan war: Going out to fight, then returning to camp to rest and enjoy Martel's presence. The only thing missing is Mithos hovering over their shoulder. Clearly, nothing of value was lost in Yuan's opinion.
[So she'll spot him, hesitate for a second with no idea what to do with the wet table-rag thing in her hand, then drop it onto the table she was washing and casually hurry the heck over and hug him.]
[He freezes for a few seconds at Martel's forwardness, flushing a deep red. Even after all this time, he still fails at intimacy. Once he's gotten over the surprise, though, he'll wrap one of his own arms around her waist to hold her closer.]
[Oh hey, it's that Jay kid. They've spoken plenty of times over the journals, but this is the first time Yuan's actually meeting him in person. Jay's a little shorter than he expected, but considering the boy's claiming to be an information gatherer, that may be for the best. Yuan pauses in his tracks, crossing his arms over his chest. Was that a subtle move to hide his aching shoulder? Possibly.]

...If I'm not there, I'll make my way there on my own. How long are you planning to be out there, again?

I'd say it wouldn't take longer than a week.
