Cooper is favoring his right arm, keeping the movement to a minimum. While his chest wound had healed up fast out of the necessity to not have a hole in his lung, his arm was taking a while longer. He nods to Jean-Claude as he approaches. They are so very different, the older vampire sleek and charming where the younger was rough and blunt.
"I'm a member of Islington, aren't I? Of course I'd be here." Nest loyalty trumped everything else in Cooper's mind. It gave him a sense of purpose and a direction in which to go. If he didn't have that in his life, he'd be lost, not to mention dreadfully bored.
Any commentary afterward would be reduced to "This is all your fault!"
