Jedidiah? It was a place to start, at least. Not that he had time to chase down anyone at the moment, but damn if he found that Bastien had been playing with people's feelings he would be truly angry at the man. Even knowing that Rexanna held him in esteem currently did little to soften the edges that he had found still raw from Long Night, in spite of the sunshine and healing that come with the dawn.
Isuma was a balm to his temper, as always, and he smiled as she greeted Rexanna and charmed the woman with her usual sweet, playful personality. She purred into the petting while the humans talked, far more interested in making a new friend than the silly noises they were making as Jigano nodded ruefully at Rexanna's words. "He's a good enough lad," he agreed, thinking wryly of the runaway carriage that their relationship had followed. Exasperating as the boy could be, and as much as the bard disagreed with his choices, at least Remi meant well, when all was said and done.
"I don't know about 'won,'" he admitted with a chuckle. "I think she let me catch her, in the end, for reasons of her own. But I must admit, I'm incredibly grateful that she did. Isuma has been... a much needed addition to my life," he said fondly, looking to the gryphlet as she settled into Rexanna's lap with a happy peep. Seeing the human beginning to sew, she picked up one of the scraps and began shaking her head vigorously - perhaps helpfully making sure it was 'dead' before Rexanna wanted to play with it.
Jigano hid a laugh behind his hand as he set down again and collected the scissors to go back to to cutting shapes for the banners. "A little rainbow gryphon, to fly above the street? he asked, half of Rex and half of Isuma. "Lovely Rexanna, we would be honored if you turned your skills to that!"
