[Believe it or not, the explanation actually satisfies Dist for the most part. In all of his blind rage over this event, he had forgotten about that detail of wait time after "death" in this world. Also, for the first time he can tell Jade isn't hiding any extra information about it from him. It's no secret that he and Jade have a very different concept of death from most people, but he was worried that his friend had an ulterior reason for attempting to off himself. That doesn't appear to be the case. It's far from perfect, but it'll do.
He finally appears to loosen up a bit, allowing himself to sit less rigid.]
Absolutely nothing happened?
[He figures the best way to show he's letting this go is to engage in the explanation. That, and he's genuinely interested. He wishes he doesn't have to be hearing it from Jade, but there's not much that can be done about that.]
