Jann is minding his own business. He is playing by himself in the courtyard with a wooden sword: this definitely constitutes minding his own business. Nothing that follows is his fault.

"Tall, handsome, seventeen years old, able to wield a sword without breaking your arm..."

Jann snorts. "Come on, though, who? I don't even know what gender I'd be trying to set you up with if you wanted me to help."

It takes them several days to get home, and then Jann's knighting, a bit more than a week late, occurs. Jann looks very knightly.

It's nice to have everybody around for a while! Even Reko showed up. Probably Milo will monopolize him with chess, but that's all right.

Reko wasn't originally going to be able to make it, but the extra delay induced by Milo's carrying-off allowed him to find room in his schedule.
He does go up to Jann once the crowd has cleared a little - Reko isn't fond of crowds - and offer his personal congratulations.

"Thanks! I'm glad you could make it after all. Thank Milo for apparently smelling like a princess."

He snorts softly. "Somehow I don't think he'd take those thanks in the spirit intended."
