Jigano arched a brow at Remi's reaching after clouds, hearing the young man's silent admission in his tone and seeing no reason to drive it home further. If someone was going through the bag for a legitimate reason they wouldn't have taken the mask on a whim, after all. Not on this, of all nights.
Twirling his empty glass between his fingers, the bard frowned at the news that Ascended left no scent. He hadn't realized that, but it made a certain sense. "Even so, it would be a way to narrow your possibilities," he said slowly. "If there is no scent, then you know it was an Ascended, at least, and not someone else. It wouldn't confirm that Lucas was the thief, but it would remove all non-Ascendeds from the list of possible thieves. And you should be able to get a headcount of who was here during Long Night..." he trailed off, and shook his head with a sigh. "But I agree, he's the most likely suspect. I'll let him know if I see him, that you would like to speak to him." He offered the younger man a lopsided smile, just before a resounding crash made him flinch. An odd look came over his face then, followed by a heavy sigh.
"Ah... it seems Isuma has found a wine spider. Forgive me, Remi, but I should probably clean that up. If you need anything... well. I'm glad we are not as at odds as we were before." With a courteous bow (that almost set his hair on fire from the feather still in his hand) he turned and made a hasty retreat towards the cellar and the very sheepish gryphlet who awaited him there.
