In all honesty, River did not expect anything from the American competitor, but a scornful remark. The word of thanks caught him off guard inside, however, the Healer remained placid just the way he should be with patients he barely knew. "You're welcome, Miss Gray." And just like that, he was done with his part. Quietly, he stood up from his spot and shifted his attention back to Regina to hear out the results. As he did so, Roscoe and Bumi found their way to their master, and dutifully sat by his side, as if they too understood what was being said by the Headmistress.

The results were finally announced, and River breathed out the air he's been holding as slowly as possible. IMPS was finally over. He clapped along with everyone else, and gave Brent another good pat on the back for a job well done. His gaze found Levi joining Regina and Kyle, offering his hand for a handshake to the latter. Clasping his hands behind him, River could not help but be proud of what he just saw. The boy has a long path ahead of him still, but River knew that Levi was off to a good start. While the crowd started to head inside the castle, River remained in his spot and the Healer made eye contact with the Gryffindor Champion to give him his nod of approval. Again, he wasn't sure if the boy wanted him around. He somehow made it known to him that his presence wasn't exactly wanted at the moment.
