Ozpin gives his assent and Ford finally, for the first time since he woke up, relaxes. There's never been any real doubt that Ozpin would agree, but having the agreement out there and plainly stated is what it takes to finally alleviate some of Ford's anxiety.

Not all of it, but enough that he's able to finish getting dressed without snapping at Ozpin or picking another fight over something stupid. Enough that after a moment he speaks again.

"Thank you, Ozpin." Ford has never been one to express much in the way of consideration or awareness for other people, but this time he thinks to add: "Once we've checked I can retreat to the mindscape until this is over." He still remembers how meditation and deliberately stepping aside for a co-pilot works. He can definitely do it without freaking out.

But he's got more pressing things to focus on for the moment. He returns to the bedroom to locate the Long Memory, listening to Ozpin as he goes. The warning that he should avoid the housemates is met with a nod, though there's one housemate in particular he's hoping to not run into.

"Do you suppose going out the library window would be the best way to avoid Ruby?" He feels like she probably avoids the place.
