Something wasn't right. It was, it seemed, harder than she cared to admit to adjust to not being able to flippantly play with life and death as a God would -- to hold herself back from suggesting resurrecting Rikku, and while ethical notions played a part in that, it was that Jean was slowly coming to the realization that she couldn't here.

Did she have the Phoenix? Was it with her? Was she it anymore? And if not, why would this place tear that from her when she had worked so hard to accept it?

She had no idea how to test her limits, or how to assess what was in her or how to feel it out. A part of her, she worried, was doing this in a way to test her abilities, but she knew she shouldn't discredit herself that much. This was a student. This was a friend to Scott's and Emma's students. This was a young woman, and no one should meet a gruesome end like that.

Jean caught Rachel's eyes, mental rapport flickering on as she felt her emotions, and, by proxy, Santo's.

Rachel always was an open book to Jean. Good, bad, ugly, she'd probably feel everything.

Not unlike Rachel.

She hovered in the air, the blue raptor flaring to life and reacting to her anger and she considered Jean for a moment.

"Aside from the obvious, everything okay?"

[ooc: has Jean seen Rachel's echo yet?]

"Everything's --- well, things are better, at least." Jean's voice was with Rachel, though her eyes weren't. They were locked in deep observation of her aura.

"You?"

[ooc: No, actually! Not in canon/where I've taken her from, I'm pretty sure. ]

"Not really." Lying would be a waste of breath, and she was a little tired of being mistrusted.

"But it'll get better." She hoped.

[ooc: I was actually thinking in the city.]
