[indent][color=silver]Jaden became silent when Mary started to speak in a low voice, something that he had gotten use to over their years together, it simply meant that he had treaded on more sensitive memories. Jaden picked up his goblet as he took the last remaining drink from it and set it back on the table. Truthfully he wanted so much to ask what was really on Mary's mind when she went quiet like that, but he knew better then anyone in the great hall that some things were best left alone until the one who bared them day and night chose to talk about them. Perhaps one of the things that made them get along so well was the fact that they both had a dark past of sorts, neither was willing to talk about it for reasons unknown to the other, and neither asked about it out of respect. Even when Mary went back to speaking normally Jaden still wanted to ask, reaching into his robes he pulled out the black journal in his robes and opened it to a clean page. Reached back into his pocket he pulled out a quill with a simple enchantment that keep ink on the tip, he jotted down a couple lines in the black book shyly just in case of prying eye's and then returned it to his pocket as he regained his normal posture and spoke:

[b]"Well if nothing else you won't have to deal with Karen, thats always a good start to the morning."[/b]

Jaden diverted his eye's as he looked around the great hall and saw the blonde across the hall, turning back he sort of shrugged inside for his own personal self, but that girl really did have a knack for trying to intimidate others. An that scarf she wore Jaden didn't personally care for either, he did not know what it specifically did but he had heard pray tell of those who had come in contact with the thing. Jaden truly did not see why people feared the young woman, but then again he rarely found himself in her presence all that much. If there was one true thing about Jaden it was that no one knew enough about him to exploit anything, he had made sure of that over the years. Next to no one even knew his actual name was not Jaden at all, except the teachers of course but they respected his reasons for not letting people know it. So naturally there was truly nothing Karen could do to him either way it went.

[b]"That girl puts a bitter taste in my mouth at times, iv been privy to some conversation from other students that she was being rather cruel to them with her teasing them about personal problems. She seems nice enough at times I suppose, but her habit of teasing and intimidating people is to be desired."[/b]

Jaden spoke a tad lower like Mary had done before so that possible on lookers would not catch on to who he was talking about. Truth was he wasn't into people who teased other people for fun. He wanted to do something about it but unfortunately if he is not privy to it personally there is not much he can do. Hearsay is not an appropriate reason to give other detention or worse, either way Mary was bother by Karen and that he didn't like.

[b]"If by chance she were to bother you, tell me about it I will take care of it. She might scare some around here but I am not one of them."[/b][/color][/indent]
