"Right. Well! Nice to meet you. See you around. Try to stay out of trouble." Whaps his shoulder in a friendly way and then kicks open the sealed door, cringing as he suddenly becomes aware of his acid burned shoulder. That hurt! He bends the tear in his jumper and jacket and rolls his shoulder, wincing again.

Perhaps Curls could help him.
