Need another story, something that I can confess
He tried to be understanding and patient and he was generally pretty good at it when he came to this stuff--or at least, he tried. He didn't say anything about Albert coming here every year, rain or shine and the few times he came with, like now, he hung back and let Albert do his thing.
But today was overcast and rainy and chilly and Jet got cold easily so his jacket just wasn't cutting it, making him more cranky than usual. Besides, as he watched Albert's body language change signalling he was finally done talking or whatever he did, it occurred to Jet that he honestly didn't understand the point of coming every year. He could understand paying respects, but he didn't think it had to be a yearly thing....or that Hilda would be horribly offended if they'd waited for a day that was a little warmer.
He wrapped his arms tightly around himself, rubbing at them a bit, as he waited for Albert to head back over. "It's freezing, I don't get why you come here every year, it's always cold." A bit of a sour look crossed his face, but it passed and he actually sought out the older cyborg's eyes. "You okay?" As much as he didn't get it, he did know it was important to his partner and Jet wasn't so insensitive to not understand how hard it probably still was even years later.

He'll need to take leave from his job again, which they might not like but he can always get another one. Not to mention plane tickets since Gilmore's in the arctic with some of the others on a mission. He'll have to rent a car too, since the address is nearer a suburb. In fact, he's not sure if it's in New York City at all but instead in New Jersey. He'll have to take a look at the file again.
Even so, he'll take care of it all so Jet doesn't have to think about the logistics. "Just tell me when."
