Man is now turning away, apparently his mind switching to other, more important, things.
Grimmsy (and scythe) are moving through the air very rapidly to the left of the frame. Position is still horizontal and gravity-defying, and appearance is unchanged except that the top of the scythe and Grimmsy’s “head” (cowl, at least) are appropriately the furthest-to-the-left parts of him, indicating the manner in which he was flung.
Grimmsy himself seems a bit forlorn as he is hurtling away from the man, apparently having been flung rather strongly. His eyes reflect an appearance of what would be, were he still somewhat land-based, “gazing down”; disappointed, sad. Poor little guy.
