Focused as he had been on Eichel, Heine starts slightly when he hears Jade speak.

"What am I misinterpreting?" His voice is quiet, but almost seething. What does Jade know? He'd been the one to ask for it. "What did you tell him?"

Even Heine doesn't know why he's this angry. Maybe there's something in Jade that makes him want to protect, even when he's spent so long not even trying.
