It'd hit him like a punch to the gut when he'd read that John was gone. For all that they'd barely interacted, for all that they hadn't gotten along very well, for all that he was pretty sure John would've been happy to see him leave... John had been important to people in town and Jedikiah hated knowing that they were hurting. There wasn't anything he could do about it -- he wasn't about to approach Jo at the moment, knew he probably wasn't on her list of favorite people -- but that didn't mean he didn't still hate it.
Drinking to cope with it wasn't at all a surprising thing to do, there were probably a lot of people coping that way at the moment, but Jedikiah knew it had to say something about him that he was drinking at Verdant of all places and was doing so simply because it was where Sam worked. He didn't have many friends, and he knew that Sam would be upset because Jo was upset. Misery loved company, or something like that.
He'd been sitting at the bar for a good twenty minutes, nursing a beer and watching the crowd. People watching was an old skill that died hard, but in this case? In this case, he was watching just to watch and not because he was up to something.
At least he was kind of keeping himself busy. Points for that?
