Talian whistled, and the little firelizard hopped back over to his partner, making Jada's lips quirk in a smile. "I appreciate you sharing what you could," Jada hastened to assure the Healer.

The action made her miss his deep breath, so the way he rose to his feet almost startled her.

She hadn't either, at first, but he'd grown on her, and now he was... a father figure. It was sad that not everyone had the opportunity to get to know the man as she had, but she'd just gotten lucky. "I have plenty of people I don't like myself," she confessed instead, and blinked uncomprehendingly at the small packet he dropped on her table.
Her face lit up as he told her what it was, and what it could be used for. Something small, that could help him? "Will it hurt anyone else, if they drink it with him?" she asked following him to the door. "I mean, if I share it with him?" She waited to open the door, hand hovering over the handle, waiting. "And- Talian-" She leaned in, brushing her lips boldly over his cheek, grateful. "Thank you. I appreciate it. And I owe you one."
