"10 minutes," he said with a nod, making a mental note to hurry before attempting to gather up his items in a reasonable way, so that nothing was bulging out of his arms like it had been before. It didn't work as he had hoped, and in the shuffling he managed to drop one of the scraps of parchment he was holding.
"Oh blast," he muttered as he watched it fall to the floor. He moved, half kneeling, trying to pick it up briefly before he gave up, knowing that if he kept it up he would lose more items and slowly rose to his feet again. He looked at Ari sheepishly. "Perhaps you could bring that with you?" he asked, chuckling lightly at himself.
