Feeling Inadi move her hand up, she turned to look at him just as his lips landed on the back of her hand. Breath catching and heartbeat stopping, she froze up and reddened as she felt all hot and flustered for a brief period. That was the first time she'd ever received a kiss from him and it felt way different from when she had kissed Harper or Haku. A burning sensation was sizzling on her hand. He continued to reassure her of the situation, even about getting all their stolen quest items back. Jasper nodded with her eyes on the opening door with her cheeks as red as tomatoes.
A familiar looking fellow wearing a pink apron that closely resembled the styles of dresses that Martini was into, appeared from the door with a plate of cookies. Rainbowzilla seemed to have found new interest in the platter of treats he was holding and scurried off from Luke to to Sacha. She remembered him quite easily. It was the guy she victimized with the drunk sludge. Ace's comment about poisoned food seemed to offend him, but he attempted at convincing them that they were completely safe by eating one. Since the little dino had been consuming them without any side effects, she already knew that they must be harmless. Suddenly, a brazen, pink-haired girl came stomping out, snatching the cookie offering followed by a snarly remark. It was the one who usually lugged around a pipe if she recalled correctly. Numair strolled on in as well and she couldn't believe one of their own had joined the bandits. It was rather upsetting.
Toby on the other hand, seeming to know nothing of their quote on quote 'enemies', just walked right up to Gary with an attitude about the whole cookie-platter incident, demanding that he get one. Jasper scratched the side of her forehead as she tensed up. At any moment, that crazy chick could whip out her pipe and bash him across the head like she did Haku a while back. at the mentioned of Mr.cuddles, she knew that it would receive a reaction from Inadi who felt a strong relation with the baker. In a calm, but stern manner, he stepped forward as if to command attention and cut to the chase. They were here to discuss and there was no use in dilly-dallying around. He wanted to go in and get things settled. Sometimes he came out a bit harsh and cold, but she knew he meant well and that was demeanor.
Slipping beside Toby, she patted the boy's head and nabbed a cookie off the platter. "Here you go bud." In some ways, the boy's childish attitude warmed her and presented her with an opportunity to care for her to care for a friend. even more, she felt like an older sister to him and she liked that. Jasper, shrugged at Gary who just noticed what she had done. She made sure to remember to wipe her feet once they were let in. whoever C was, she sure didn't want to make her mad. By the way they spoke of her, she was probably the head of the household.
