I throw on a petulant face at Jade and Ayumu. "Ever think that I don't like people jumping to conclusions and catching me off guard with nosey questions?" I eat a bit more food before I turn my attention to Nekora. "The method we tried last night involved mediation and reaching his mind and senses out into the world to try to pick up on the energies of different objects. The koi in the Japanese meditation garden seemed reel him in first because they have the most active life force. It seems he's able to see those energies in his mind in the shapes the objects emitting them are in actuality."

"Um... well... it would be silly to fight over not knowing languages too well..." I say to Ayumu, looking around in embarrassment as I clench my legs together while she rubs my back. I then revert my attention to Chi. "Also, that possibility did occur to me, but if you reacted THAT badly, clearly it's a sensitive subject to you. So either SOMEONE is playing the tsundere role, or you're never getting any boyfriend if that's the attitude you take so quickly."

I glare at Jade. Seems it's time to reveal my life story. And so I do, keeping my voice level and calm. "Tsundere? I guess. But usually the 'warming up to people' chapter in the story never rolls around when it comes to me. You'd understand if you grew up with a family that hates you and blames you for the fact that your mother died giving birth to you. And having to live with a name that's a constant reminder of the blame they place on you isn't easy either. My father never once said that he loved me and hired caretakers to raise me so he wouldn't have to. Then he started shooting up and then dumped me on my aunt and uncle, who don't like me either, after he lost his job at Kyoto Hospital. He blamed me for that too. My family has always kept an eye on me like I have a demon side that could awaken at any moment and slaughter them all, so I've developed an aversion to nosiness and I'm generally slow to warm up to most people. Jean-Paul isn't overly eager to learn about all the skeletons in my closet. In some ways I guess I sense a kindred spirit in him. So that's probably the reason I've warmed up to him so easily. I take a drink of tea as I realize my throat's dried out from talking so much.

Chi: Jasmine nods. "Yeah, that's what the MP's thinking, too," she says. "But we can't know for sure without recon." Your soul gem is looking much better: no flaws, and quite shiny. Could probably use a cleaning just to be sure, though.
Nekora: Jean-Paul isn't sure what to do and stops petting you.
Ayumu & Jade & Chi: "Enough!" Jasmine shouts. "Stop this ridiculousness at once! Chi, stop swearing so much! Jade and Ayumu, stop talking so that we can't understand you! If you want to talk privately, go to one of your rooms!"
Misaki: Jasmine is quite flustered by the loud interactions going on at the table, but sighs. "Sorry, Misaki," she says. "It's just what the Order's always called your people. I'll try not to say it around you."
Nekora: "Um...can you get off of me, please?" Jean-Paul asks nervously.
Chi: Jasmine doesn't respond. Jean-Paul seems on edge. Perhaps the group is too much for him right now? And your story might have affected him, too...

Nekora gives out a disappointed sigh but get off of Jean; pinning him down wasn't going to help anything. "Awww... but it was relaxing! You seem nice though, wanna hang out later? Also, I'm not half bad with combat, maybe we could practice, or maybe we could RP. Sorry about the group though, we're not normally this bad..." She says, her voice sounding crestfallen. "Be good to Chi though, alright? She won't let us be nice to her, and she needs someone."

I fall silent and nibble on the remainder of my tamagoyaki for a few moments. Before long, I whisper to Jean-Paul, "You want to go?"

"It is alright, you didn't realise that I would be upset." I reply much calmer then before. "I probably should have been more polite."

I look down in shame from how badly things heated up, at this point not really wanting to say anything more until things maybe cool down a bit.

Ayumu: "Well, you're not helping," Jasmine says.
Nekora & Chi: Jean-Paul doesn't answer, but instead quickly gets up and dashes off, out of the mead hall. He knocks a couple people over on his way out, but he never misses a step.
Misaki: Jasmine smiles. "Well, that settles that, then," she says. "All is well."

My eyes widen in alarm and I take off after him, my food forgotten.

she sighed looking down, her wings wrapping around herself as she began to wonder if she could even help others with the way she was, but the idea of growing up scared her even more.

"Welp..." Nekora says, fairly confused at this point. "I'll just... leave this to Chi at this point?" She pounces onto Ayumu's lap and purrs slightly and sends a message to Jasmine. Okay, it's not helping right now to be blaming people right now, I truly have no idea what's going on right now, but there's no reason to fuel it either, we have a new person to give a proper introduction.

"So... What are the details of the mission, and when do we head out? I say, trying to figure out why that man ran like he was being chased by a dragon.
