"I can't help it if people seem to want to." Like Raven, case in point.
But Jess was getting antsy to push on and the banter fell a little flat. Just as he got it into his head to speed up, giving into eagerness to be off the bridge and properly on their way, he felt more than saw Raven slow. With her positioned slightly ahead and to the right of him, he couldn't go any faster unless he wanted to shove her aside and potentially cause her to fall.
In response, he slowed, too, letting her have his hand and arm for support. "Almost there."
