Credence had asked Ray to give him some time, to himself and to tell his friends. But when the post goes up and his former inmate has had time to talk to the people he wants to, Ray figures it's okay.

He held it together pretty good in Credence's cabin, but all he's been thinking about is her.

Who else would he go to but Jedao? He knocks on his door in the evening, a bar of chocolate in his pocket to share, maybe.
