-Jenna (Auntie J)-
Jenna found the meeting to be but a mere show of courtesy and an attempt at keeping the citizens calm, made by the Council. Just as quickly as the meeting had started, it had ended. Jenna saw the meeting as a waste of time, because little to no actual information had be shared before every citizen, other than those on the Council, had been kicked out before the proceedings of the meeting continued. Though she had not expected the Council to provide the citizen with all the details of the case, Jenna had expected that they would at least be informed a bit more on how the Council intended on finding the murderer or murderers.
As Jenna and Rose left the less than helpful meeting, Jenna heard herself addressed. Though she knew it was Will who addressed her from the sound of his voice, Jenna turned to face him before she addressed him back. Jenna chuckled kindly at his tone of voice, smirk, and obvious displeasure with the sunniness of the day. "Ah, hello Will. I am doing well on this fine day; however I find myself frustrated with the Council for wasting mine and everyone else's time with that so called meeting. But oh well, being frustrated with their utter exclusion of any actual information will not help myself or anyone else. How are you? How is the D'finn nest holding up with the loss of Mary?" Jenna questioned, her face turning to one of concern as she considered the pain the members of the D'finn nest must have been enduring.
-Rose-
Rose could tell that Auntie J was frustrated with the Council for providing such worthless information. Rose was also slightly irritated that the Council would promise a citizen involved meeting, only to try to appease the citizens by giving them little to no information that would actually be informative. Rose was off in her own little world again and thought to herself, "What a waste of time. I could have been working, or even better, I could have been training at the gym." Rose had recently been training in a martial arts form that was new to her, but she had been struggling to master it. Recently, most of her free time that wasn't spent working, reading, being nagged by Auntie J to work on her spells or runes, or being sick, was spent in the gym or out in the clearing a little ways away from the soda shop, training herself in this martial arts form. Yet, she had still not been able to master certain intricate and more advanced moves. The fact that she couldn't master this martial arts form bugged her, but she figured it was most likely because recently her body had not been easily accepting blood, so she was lacking her usual physical strength.
Upon hearing Will address Auntie J, Rose snapped out of her train of thought. Rose looked up at Will as he glanced over at her. Though she could sense the unease that was commonly in his eyes when he looked at her, Rose ignored the look and half smiled back at him and gave a slight nod. As Jenna talked with Will, Rose looked around and noticed that the citizens were dispersing, and that a few were headed back towards town where the soda shop was located. Rose figured that someone ought to be at the soda shop incase customers showed up. Rose quickly explained as much to Auntie J, and offered to go back to run the place so that Auntie J could continue talking with Will. Auntie J agreed, and gave Rose a quick nod before shooing her away and returning her attention to Will. With that, Rose turned and walked briskly down the sidewalk toward the soda shop. As she walked, Rose again began to think about what she would have to do to master the martial art she was training, off in her own little world yet again.
