Ren felt a little out of place now. He sat back on the couch cause Kami wouldn't take her seat back from him and fell back into his old habit of observing people. He watched their expressions and how their facial movements changed. His attention would moved to others as they spoke, and it almost looked like he was listening.

He wasn't actually being ignored, but there seemed to be an atmospheric change. He smiled a little at Jack and nodded that he was doing fine now. He looked over at Cara and blinked at the dismay on her face. He looked around trying to find the source before he perceived it must be from him. "Ah," He raised up his hands and waved them in a manner to let her know not to worry. "I'm fine. Really. It's no problem. Are you alright?"

Suddenly the sound of a glass bottle being placed on a wooden surface woke him from his trance-like state and he looked over at Shae, blinking at the other man with a bit of a confused look. He had brought him another bottle of the Louisianan beer that he had bought in an attempt to impress the bounty hunter. He was glad he had done it, but he wondered about his own reasons for it. Maybe it was so that Shae would like him as a friend and to make up for his awkwardness.

"Thanks." It had taken him a little too long to string together exactly what the other man had said. He was suddenly feeling a little slow and the accent was feeling a little more difficult to translate. Too much to drink? He popped the beer cap anyways. "If you say so." The taste of barley and malt rushed down his throat. It was good but he was still hungry...something sweet would make it better. He reached out and to grab one of Kami's pecan bars and realized that there was another hand trying to take it. He blink and looked up to see that the hand belong to Shae.
