"My apologies, Chandra, I misunderstood your meaning. Yes, that should be easy to manage so long as I'm near all of you." Shion nodded in assurance once the vampire corrected Shion's thinking.
Kelsey's brazen and tactless desire to score a good night with Sophia-and seemingly Chandra too if she could manage-got on Shion's nerves. She did her best not to let it show, but a slightly furrowing of her brow occurred even if for just a few moments before she regained herself. She viewed such bonds as far more intimate and with those you loved, not some random stranger you just met because you think her bug arms can satisfy your curiosity for the night. She has given me no reason to trust her...much less like her...Morana better be right about her...
She was able to put it out of her mind thankfully since she was rather curious about Chandra's response to the halfling's proposal. She remembered that Chandra never reciprocated those feelings directly, at least publicly, but even so this was something she didn't expect. Was she...was she unfamiliar in how these relationships worked? She definitely oversold her desire to pet her tail, and she had this...aloofness to her that Shion presumed wasn't just an act like earlier. She wondered if this would lead her to potential heartbreak being unfamiliar with how such things worked, but there was a time to get involved and a time to let things run their course. If Chandra wanted her advice on the matter, she simply need ask.
Scylla proceeded to get some flak from Morana about her choices, perhaps a bit harsh, but she was more surprised it took her this long. She had teased Scylla enough, this time she'd actually try to help her out. She approached Scylla and after Cayde offered his encouragement to the witch, she bent over so she could be eye level with Scylla and smiled at her, Shion's tail swishing about behind her. "We all learn at out own paces, Scylla, there is no reason to be ashamed with making mistakes. Fail forwards towards success, rather than away and give up. It'd probably be best if we leave Sverre with Morana, a big hunk of metal won't do much for stealth."
Shion stood up again and walked over to Iberis with a hand held up for a high five, but not so high the mage couldn't reach. "I believe this is an appropriate use of this gesture, yes?"
Iberis's smile only became brighter at seeing Shion offer her the high five, Even with Shion being a deal taller than her, with it being at the appropriate height she high fived Shion.
Shion smiled back, glad she'd kept up with human gestures over the years. Hi-fives they were called, right? She hadn't been apart of many back in her world, but she tried to keep in mind its relevance since there were a couple times it felt invigorating. This was another one. She proceeded to be on her way out along with everyone once things were solidly discussed before stopping by Morana and placing a gentle hand on her shoulder that wasn't metallic. "If nothing else, think of it as a break from Scylla." She whispered to the woman before they were out the door, chuckling slightly as she walked away from Morana.

"My only request is to try not to go crazy with your thoughts right now." She asked of everyone present as the irises in her eyes began to glow once more. She wasn't attempting to [Mind Link] with anyone right this instant, but her mind entering the abstract now would both help keep her focused on her task at hand as well as not raise the thrall's immediate suspicion should she see Shion's eyes light up. Instead, if it was perceived as her constant state of being, it'd be easier to sell as nothing out of the ordinary.
"Chandra, Cayde, if the thrall questions my peculiar disposition, I'm trusting both of you to help me out. Trying to tell a convincing lie while I'm floating between seven people's minds waiting to relay anything will cause...complications I imagine." She requested of the two best talkers they had in the group as she stood back with Scylla and Sophia. She positioned herself behind Iberis as best she could, wishing she could be up front instead, but she agreed with Chandra's plan so she'd take the backseat for now.

[Mind Link F]: [Magic F], [Telepathy F], [Empathy F] - Her Mink Link isn't presently targeting anyone, her mind is just existing in the flow between everyone's minds ready for something to go wrong. Extreme/Intense thoughts would probably catch her attention though.
