Mark supressed the wince when true to his expectations just about everyone called the stupid idea out for what it was. He also made a few mental notes, for one, don't listen to your digimon when you can't be sure they know what they're talking about, for two, see about getting such a blocker necklace too, he had no idea that was possible, and for three, don't ever base any expectations about rose on what she says or how she acts, she made an effort to always be impossible to understand.<br/><br/>He didn't get any further time to ponder any of this though, when the yell for rapids came he had to hold onto the raft for all he could.<br/>That unfortunately saw him thrown against the bend, bruising him badly and disorienting him briefly, just long enough for the raft to go on its merry way with most of his clothes and his backpack, good thing he kept the more high tech pieces, namely his pokeballs and phone on his belt.<br/><br/>Climbing out of the water he just avoided eye contact with everyone as he made his way over to a rock and sat down on it, fully expecting Firis to walk up and smack him before anything else happens.
