He hadn't really expected anything from Adam, too sunk into his own mourning to study his companion, but the sudden surge of advice and support would have caught him off guard even if he had been at his best. The Outlander rogue could be charming, brash, thoughtless, and stubborn in their reading lessons. This was more insight than Jigano had been giving him credit for, and the sudden need to reevaluate the Devil's Advocate was enough to shake some of the fugue from him as he turned to blink at his companion.
"...Perhaps not," he granted, a little of his surprise sneaking through at Adam's vehemence and understanding of what was going through his head. The not-quite-suggestion wasn't a bad one, though a large part of him railed against the idea of leaving Caiside untended at his deathwatch. It hurt, but then, the truth so often did. Jigano exhaled slowly, looking down at himself and realizing, if dully, that he was still covered in his friend's drying blood. "I... perhaps I should clean up." The admission was reluctant, if only because it meant leaving, but he took a shaky breath and nodded a little more firmly. "I... yes. Water, and some soap. Do you know where I could find some?" He was not as familiar with the Guild's layout as he wished, at the moment. Perhaps Adam would know more.
