It's certainly a possibility. Of course, she may not realize that the sooner the truth comes out, the sooner that preparations can start being made. [It really is a possibility on some level - but by this point Jade has begun thinking it has to be something more - something bad. But that's the kind of thing he doesn't want to give away to his sister, when it could become dangerous leverage.]

Well, if you can rule everything else out, you might want to suggest a medical visit for just that purpose. Imagine if she didn't know, either. [Jade is making the unwitting expression of 'no this isn't it'. Fortunately, Nephry likes Shayera too much and is too generally kind to think of blackmail.] I wish you would just lay out your concerns plainly, instead of trying to make me guess.

[yourfononsarewhack]

A medical visit is certainly under consideration. [Maybe even more. But he goes on with a flippant shrug.]

My, my. You can't blame me for having a proper sense of caution, can you? A Curtiss does not display vulnerability, after all.

[silversnowfall]

You know better than to feel the need to be "cautious" around me. We're family. [Which he probably considers a weakness.]

Would you like me to come over and talk to Shayera?

[yourfononsarewhack]

It's a word that only goes so far, Nephry. [In the end, people were people more than anything else. Everyone had a price.]

And I'm not so sure. I don't want her to feel suspicious about your intentions. [And if something really is wrong with Shayera, he'll have to keep it from Nephry.]

[silversnowfall]

Unlike you, I don't have intentions of which one should be suspicious. We may not be best friends but we do enjoy each other's company, you know.

[yourfononsarewhack]

Very well. [He rubs at the bridge of his nose for a moment.] If it's of your own volition, I suppose that there's nothing I can do about it. Just be sure to run it through a secretary. [And he'll do what he can to prevent an actual appointment from being made.]

[silversnowfall]

Jade, please. I don't need a secretary in order to have lunch with my sister-in-law. [Her hands half-steeple again.] Your desire to keep turning me aside from seeing her implies that something is really wrong.
