This is nice. The world is in that odd calm after the storm, but the calm after you're done feeling rattled, you're still kind of numb, but you can finally see the state of everything around you, and process it. The day was bad, but it's not the end of the world (or his time at Miyagi-do) that it felt like it was to Robby. It's not as heavy, and he likes that.

He doesn't even feel mad about anything. There's regrets, there's some processing of the day that needs to take place, but his mind is in a place to do that later.

"I'll tell Tory," he answers, looking at Mister LaRusso with a tug of his lips. "She's probably expecting something. Valley karate knows how to have fun."

She's been part of the reason, but it's not really serious. Still, she's his girlfriend, and he'd like to chat with her -- even if it is going to turn out he was chatting with Silver the entire time.

(Spoilers.)

"I'll take my stuff into a spare room and hang out there, then have the bath -- if that's okay." Mister LaRusso already gave him permission, but there's a familiarity coming back to Robby, being the guest and offering to help out. He should, a thought nags at him, but he doesn't want to. He kind of wants to just lay on a bed and let his body feel like shit for a while, and then take that soak.

Double-checking comes out anyway, one he can't exactly back out of, but he's ready to stand anyway, regardless of the answer.
