He'd figured it would turn into a regular party. Falcon did not do parties. Best to let Jeff catch up with Maxwell and Tony--people he actually remembered--while he went off to do something productive. Get clothes. Find Ness and Paula. Keep denying that the Jeff he knew was possibly gone forever. Thinking about a Jeff that didn't know him or Samus or the school so soon after Ionia's departure was difficult, and he wasn't sure he could even stand to be there.

It was one big headache. This Jeff was wet and cold and confused and Falcon was certain that the more people arrived, the more confused he would get. He glanced at Samus, who was perhaps the only person he felt comfortable leaving Jeff with while the student was in such a state.

"I'm going to go grab you some fresh clothes and see if I can't track down Ness and Paula. I'll be back."

And off he went.
