Gritting his teeth and squeezing his eyes shut as Willie moved his head up, Jake tried not to make a sound. Was it bad? Bruised? Grossly disfigured? Did he still actually HAVE a neck?

Ahem.

Watching Willie and remembering the incident in their dormitory, Jake was a tad suspicious, but did his best to hide it. It was a pretty brilliant gesture in Jake's eyes for Willie to help him like this, even if he did look a great idiot. "Thank you," he said softly to the boy, before peering round at the new arrival on the scene. Eyeing the interaction, Jake was going to nod in show that he was, in fact, Jake Upstead, but decided that a small wave would do better.
