He put a hand to his face and groans. There was a part of him that felt bad he'd made Peter so nervous he was backing away from him and broke the potion. However, the much larger part wanted to toss the boy off the mountain- not literally.
He reaches out and grabs Peter's hand. "Shut it! Not one more word. Bite your lip if you have to." He looks at the wound and sighs. "Buttercup, sweetie, would you mind getting into my bag there and finding the tweezers?"
He looks back at Peter and meets his gaze. "Listen to me. In case you were confused on the matter, I'm in charge here and you listen to me and do what I ask. Gwen's not here so I'm allowed to treat you like the kid you're acting like. Got it?" See? He listened to the talk. "As far as your web shooters, you don't need them. We're getting back on the train and you're done with anything here. I mean it. Don't even go sniffing flowers level done. You're staying on this rock until we board the train. You're giving me both of your web shooters. You're grounded. Got it? That's for mouthing off to me and cursing in front of Buttercup like you don't have any sense in your head. The jar.. well, I think it just punished you enough for that. Now hold still while I get this glass out of your hand."
