Jamie does trail behind for a moment, but it's only to retrieve the trowel. No sense in leaving it behind when it could still come in useful for the rest of the dig. He catches up quickly enough after that, soon falling into step with Cassie.

"There's no need to thank me for that, although I'm glad I got the chance to talk with ye," he says, with a smile of his own. Seems he's enjoyed her company as well. "Sorry we weren't able to turn up your beastie, though."

Soon enough, they're back at the outskirts of the camp, and Jamie glances around for sign f a familiar, too-skinny figure in a bow-tie...but doesn't see him. "Look, I should go find the Doctor before he decides I've wandered off somewhere. Will ye be alright from here?"
