Isla, Jigano was swiftly deciding, was a delight. He could easily spend more time in her company, seeking out medicinal ingredients and swapping tales, and he was pleased that she felt the same. "I'll keep an eye out for more in my explorations, nonetheless," he promised with a smile. Now that he knew what they looked like it would be far easier, and in fox form he was much closer to the ground and would have a faster time sniffing them out. It would only be appropriate to make his eventual visit to the infirmary bearing gifts!
He trailed his new friend more slowly, keeping an eye out for more of the little plants just in case. Then he settled himself back down on his rock to withdraw his notepad once more, ready to jot down anything Isla noticed or learned that he had missed. "They might, at that," he agreed with a grin, not bothering with false modesty as he accepted her teasing compliment. "I'll be sure to give credit where it's due, though." He couldn't help but laugh at her description of the infirmary, grin broadening. "Only if it's done right! A non-sterile infirmary is, admittedly, not as inspiring of confidence." He reached forward to carefully poke his pencil stub into a fiery petal, holding it there and watching the flame flow around it harmlessly. "But I shall be glad to try and liven the place up a bit." One more smidgen of atonement to add to his scales, perhaps.
"Ah, an engineer as well? A man of many talents, this Remi."Jigano retrieved his pencil at last to examine it, finding no sign of char and jotting the detail down. Next was a small corner of the page, so far unused, that he tore off and offered the blossom next. "Thank you, Isla. I would appreciate it very much! Did you know him before you found yourself here? Or did you meet him after you arrived?"
