I'm excited for the Caleb Guilt over accidentally leaving Jester behind. He didn't know she was there and assumed Nott was right behind him and then they both almost died. Not that Caleb reasonably could've done much but you know he's gonna blame himself.

Caleb is going to feel *so* guilty. He already feels so much guilt after his and Fjord's shenanigans last episode and her disappointment/disapproval. He's already worried he's ruined one of the only good, pure things he has left, and it wasn't even on purpose this time. On top of his guilty and fear for Nott. He's either going to commit hardcore to protecting them and his attachment to them or (emotionally) run a mile. And its going to be fascinating.

PLUS, someone on Twitter pointed out that given the time fuckery, what was a handful of seconds for Jester and Nott could have been *hours* for those waiting on the other side.

Caleb guilt is my favourite flavour! Even just watching his face hit the table when Sam turned his tablet around to show off his single hit point...

Reasonably Caleb knew Nott could gtfo and there was nothing he could really have done even if he knew Jester was there, but it'll be fun to watch yet another fight between Caleb's calculating pragmatist side and his constant guilt and grudging acceptance that he does actually care about people around him.

It's gonna be even worse because he already feels incredibly guilty over Jester having witnessed the blood ritual and he thinks he's spoiled their relationship and lost one of the few good things in his life, now this. The guilt is gonna be REAL.
