[Definitely always a reassuring way to preface a conversation. But Jayden's doing his best to take things in stride at the moment, because if he doesn't then he has to really think about all of this and what it might mean, which is a slightly horrifying prospect.
So he just nods a little, to show he understands, and listens as Claude explains. He's not totally sure if's good or not that much of this is familiar, having heard some pieces of this from the others, but at least it's consistent. Corroboration that apparently this is how this place works, that these are just facts of being here.
And despite having heard a little bit of this, and resolving not to think too hard about it, he does still need those beats to let it sink in before he can respond.]
Is that how the invitation for this get-together was sent? Because I wasn't totally sure if I was seein' things or not.
