[It's been a while since ν-13 returned from her mallynapping. Beyond interacting with a few people and briefly attending Luka's concert, she hasn't done all that much since - or rather, she hasn't done much that would affect most people
That's about to change today. Why? Because there's something that's been bothering her ever since that

...Wait. Why is he lying on the ground? Why are people quietly stepping over him!? She gapes at the sight and she hastens over.]
Jin? Jin, are you-- [Once she's close enough to see the state he's in, her blood runs cold. She kneels down frantically and lays a hand on his shoulder.] --wh-what happened!? Jin, can you hear me!?

He doesn't move at first, but he does mutter her name.] ...Tsu...baki...?
[He's not sure quite what happened when he finally opens his eyes, just noticing he is a bit sore, still, and that that pain he felt (how could he forget that?) seems mostly gone.
And then he remembers suddenly what had been going on before he passed out and he goes to practically jump to his feet, although really only manages to get into a kneeling position for now. Jin grabs at his head, trying to stop the dizzying effect of getting up too fast.]
...She's gone.

[Ugh is he trying to make it worse? Tsubaki attempts to get a grip on his arm to stop him, but it looks like he can't make it to his feet on his own anyway. It hurts just to see him in such a sorry state, but she can't do much more than hover nearby panicking and wondering how she's going to drag him to the clinic by herself...]

She must correct this injustice.]
Who's gone? Who's responsible for this...?

-I have no idea.
[He says it pathetically with a sigh, probably mostly annoyed at himself for not even knowing.] She looked like someone I knew a long time ago.
[He's thoughtful now, before quietly asking:] ...Is there anyone here from our world that (is a Murakumo Unit) resembles Noel Vermillion? [-that resembles Saya, he wants to say, but instead uses the next closest. He knows it wasn't Vermillion, but that's all he can ask in terms of identifying his opponent.] I think she was looking for Ragna.

...I do know someone like that. [Could Jin seriously have some sort of history with Nu?]
But... looking for Ragna? Did that have something to do with the reason why she attacked you? [Are you the one who started it, Jin? :|]

She identified me as a threat and I attempted to draw Yukianesa. [HE STARTED NOTHING, BABY :C
Someone with THAT face again wandering around Luceti. Just what he wants to see. Now he has double the chance of being irritated: Noel and this other one.

And if that was the case, WHY DIDN'T YOU WIN, JIN?] That's terrible. But never mind all that now. I need to get you to doctor...
[If only she had a wagon. :C]

[SMALL TECHNICAL ISSUES WITH YUKIANESA AND RACHEL AND VALKENHAYN BEING SADISTIC BITCHES]
Mmm, I don't need a doctor. [He knows how much of an added burden he'd be to her, otherwise. He's sure he's fine, though. He's faced a lot more damage dealing with Ragna. This one incident just happened to occur at the worst possible moment-- specifically, when Valkenhayn's "healing" technique wore off.]
Is she really a threat?
[A wagon would be nice :C]
Reply
...I don't know. I've never really seen her causing trouble myself, but Noel once warned me that she was unstable... And dangerous.
[Yet even if it's true, Tsubaki has seen that there's more to Nu than that. She even has some of the drawings of Hakumen that Nu gave her for Christmas up on her wall! But after this particular incident? ...Maybe they need to have a little talk.]

[Damn stupid people stepping over everything, including him. Poor Tsubaki having to deal with him because no one else will :( .]
I'll be fine, the pain's subsiding.
Reply
Jin, please. At least let Miss Litchi take a look at you. If not for your own sake, then for my peace of mind. [At least she's used to dealing with him like this, even if it was only over silly things back at the Academy.]
Reply
[He sighs, looking quite unhappy before he nods a bit.]
...Alright...
[Jin knows she won't let up until he complies, anyway. Besides, even if the pain has lessoned, it still wouldn't hurt to see if Litchi could do something about it.]
Reply
Good. Thank you. [Though she still isn't sure how to get him there, especially if he's still in pain. Oh well. She'll try to help him up, and at least she's there for support.]
Reply
He sighs again, a small smile on his face as he bows his head.]
You know, sometimes I wonder why instead of Vermillion that you...
[He trails off. Why Noel was his secretary had been made clear from the very start. But, still...]
Reply
...She waits for the end of that sentence, but it never comes.] Hm?
