He tilted a nod of agreement to Remi, quiet for the moment as he wrestled with the enormity of the task laid before them. Phoebe was a given a slight shake of his head at her apology, though, and a quiet: "You're not late, don't worry." It wasn't exactly a well-planned gathering so much as a haphazard need to confirm what the new sense within his chest was telling him: that these people were now bound with him to some task greater than any they could have guessed.
And then Amalia arrived with refreshments, a gracious hostess but by no means a calm one. Jigano took a cup and poured himself some tea to hold, taking comfort from both the warmth and familiarity of the routine as he nodded at her question and looked around at their little gathering of erstwhile guardians. Amalia made sense, Shield that she was, and Phoebe did as well for her piety to Frey. But he and Remi? "I don't really know," he admitted slowly. "It's all very... overwhelming, still." He hadn't meant to pause so long, but there were so many words that could apply. Like incredible... but also frightening. "I guess I wanted to know what everyone else thought of this. The dream, the... task." He glanced around the table from one to another of his fellows, spreading his hands in silent request for them to share their opinions and ideas on the events of the previous night.
