[Perhaps it helps that Jade has endured the company of many prickly individuals that she is able to tolerate the insults, coupled with the fact that... Well, Kainé did also just save her worthless ass not long ago.

[It also helps that she's hot, and certainly not someone Jade would kick out of bed. But she does her best to contain those kinds of thoughts for now, not wanting to make this situation any more awkward than it kinda already is.]

Hey. Say what you want about me, but don't do my donkey dirty like that.

[Leave Butters out of this.

[Then she gives a start when Kainé just fucks off mid-step. Jade leans back, pulling her hands away when Kainé disappears into the forest.]

Well, alright then...

[She falls quiet, and for a while she just sits there. It's already getting late, but Jade doesn't see herself as having anywhere else to be...

[So she waits, figuring that it's the least she can do.

[Some time passes before it occurs to Jade just how big of a piss does this have to be, really? to justify how long Kainé is taking. Maybe she had second thoughts about accompanying Jade and decided to go her own way.]

Maybe she fell in...? [Jade comments to herself, before dismounting the donkey as well. She turns, giving him a quick pat on the face, and talks as if he can understand her:] Stay here, okay? I'm just... gonna go check on our new "friend".
