And all at once, the universe groaned.
John glanced at the woman cocking an eyebrow. Clearly something was happening and he couldn't let this slide. He must make sure that everything went smoothly and that things played out correctly.
"My apologies I was simply greeting this man before I stepped inside myself. I did not mean to be so uproarious. Now if you will excuse me, I shall be helping with the investigation as much as I possibly can. A neutral party is always the best way to discover the truth."
John bowed slightly as he slipped inside, managing to hear Lily's entire speech as he smiled, hearing every last detail.
"What amazes me, truly miss...Lily was it? Funny, that's the same name as mother-dearest. Is your absolute absence from the scene at hand if you were absolutely concerned about it. Which leads me to imply one of two things. Either you thought that there might be reasonable doubt and gave such benefit to the gang of ruffians, rioters, and unruly gents and gentess, or that you deemed it to be of little threat. After all, I do not believe that fetching ice cream whenever you are holding such important intelligence and did not inform Miss Rose of the threat would be counter-intuitive if you truly are as worried as you say you are. Thankfully, however, this young man acted quite admirably and boldly, proving that humans are not just mere cattle to be pushed around and to which I say bravo young man."
John would clap while smiling and nodding at Azure as he takes a step forward.
"But perhaps the biggest question that we are not asking is, 'why'. Now why on earth would they target this strapping young man who clearly expressed disinterest in confrontation and remorse for whatever wrong was committed. Surely they are not unreasonable, lest they would have already tried to kill me for merely being a witness. No, they didn't even attack the young man last night either, when he was most vulnerable, so we can easily assume that they are not mindless monsters, rather people with an agenda to fill. The question is, what could said agenda be. What could they have to gain from wanting to gain Miss Rose's trust and instead of back stabbing her directly, they go for a normal student. When the normal student expressed regret, they hesitated. It was only after the angel intervened that combat arose. The question is then, why?"
John would turn to the others, hands behind his back, clearly lost in thought.
