"As will I," Jigano agreed soberly to the 'plan,' vague as it was. "I have always been better at supporting my warrior friends than at inflicting damage myself." Not that he was entirely incapable of it. The bite wounds on Rory and Amalia were proof of that, weren't they? An unfortunate reminder of why he was out here in the dim light rolling bandages and not somewhere with more people. He didn't trust himself yet, his confidence having taken a blow and leaving him feeling lost and uncertain of his current path.
Oddly, the interlude with Lucas had given him something back rather than wearying him further. It had felt good to talk to someone so bright of mind, a reminder of what he should be capable of, and he scraped together a bit of his old masks to manage a shadow of a joke for his companion. The sound of laughter in the twilit infirmary was almost blasphemous, however, and Jigano only barely hid his wince at the blond's brash boasting. He managed a nod, if not a smile, arching a pale brow. "At the least, I can say that were a good conversationalist," he murmured. "And thank you for your help. May the rest of your Long Night be... survivable." With a final nod he pulled himself to his feet, letting the blond go his own way while the bard returned to his friends' sides.
