Sure, the new charm he wore around his wrist, hidden under his gloves, meant he didn't need Adri's help anymore but the news of why he'd gotten sick still stabbed at him like a dagger in the gut. Being shunned by most of his own house was also painful and knowing that Valentin, Adri and Kat would all be at the jump made him just want to leave.

As he watched people jump, he remembered how the one jump he had the previous year was actually kinda fun- but doing it fully clothed didn't sound like fun and he knew it was too much of a risk to do it in swim trunks. He watched Dana, Clara and Galad jump and then decided it was probably best to leave before he ran into anyone he shouldn't. He turned to do just that when he found someone occupying the space behind him. "Sorry. Excuse me." He muttered, stepping around the person.
