Jigano had been deliberately trying not to pay attention to the sub-conversation going on between Remi and Amalia, doing his best to respect their privacy as much as the Attuned mental link would allow. There was a vague sense that they were speaking of Ronin's daughter, who had become Remi's daughter, and now was daughter to them both, but he kept his attention focused on the storms and scouting instead to help distract him from something he did not think he was a part of.
It was a conversation that was abruptly less important than the lone figure stumbling through the storm, and then the not-so-strange figure as they recognized Ashetta and reacted each in their own way to the lost woman's reappearance. As Remi both clung to her and held her up, Jigano nestled warily close withing Amalia's arms. Yes, he confirmed in a grim undertone to the baker, their thoughts dovetailing to the last time Ashetta had impacted their lives, however indirectly.
But if she had also allowed Ronin to return...
It was a complex and complicated twist of thoughts that the storm's edge left no time to pursue, and Jigano croaked as he was freed so Amalia could shift. Lightning flashed close enough to put his feathers on end in spite of the rain, thunder promptly deafening the world around him and he took the hint and put his head down, scampering back towards the Outskirts as a gust of wind caught him from behind and gave him a boost out of the clouds. Remi, do you need help? he called back, preferring to save any moral quandaries for when everyone was (comparatively) safe.
