"pardonnez-moi que vous parlez français?" She asked Jade knowing she'd know what she was saying if she were french - she sounded it. She had only asked if she spoke french for merlin's sake. "I was just asking because you look, well familiar" she admitted with a shrug of the shoulder.
When Jade said she was horribly nervous she couldn't help but feel the same exact way, nervous seemed to be the energy of the room. "I think we all are feeling quite a bit nervous ourselves" she smiled. "And you are welcome" she smiled knowing she'd understand right? She was only being polite as it were.
Jade raised an eyebrow racking her brain trying to work out where she knew this girl from. There was only one place she'd know her from... Okay,
two places. Beauxbatons and Chelsea. But Jade had only been back in Chelsea since she was seventeen and she'd moved there when she was at least...
Four was it? She couldn't remember but it was a long time ago. Long enough ago for her to forget how old she actually was. But she had a good memory when it came to faces and she didn't recognise Kyle from anywhere around Chelsea. If she had, it'd be clearer. Maybe? Who knew?
But this gave it away. She smiled when the girl spoke the language she wasn't as good at as she'd hoped. But she understood what Kyle was saying so she must have understood it more than she originally thought.
"Le français est ma langue seconde" she responded. She was proud of herself. Though she wasn't entirely sure why she was proud of herself. She'd only spoken a different language. Familiar? So Jade wasn't the only one who looked familiar in this conversation. Did that even make sense?
"Beauxbatons?" she asked curiously. Not that it could be considered a question. But she had asked questioningly.
She was nervous too? Well duh! Would she have said what she just said if she wasn't? But it seemed the nerves were running wild in the room at the moment and who would blame them. Assuming everyone in the room were new employees. Jade wouldn't know, this was her first day and up to now, she only knew two people.
"First day nerves are the worst. I think we'll be a lot better once we've gotten used to the surroundings and stuff. But it helps no-one's alone" she responded. Now she sounded as though she was giving some sort of opening speech or something.
SPOILER!!: Rowan

He instinctively scratched his head, his nervous thing.
"Nice to meet you, Jade."
What now? Could he get on with some work, please?
Jade turned her head to face Rowan as he began to speak. Was it just her or did his nerves seem off the scale? Maybe it was just because he was around a lot of people and probably didn't know very many of them.
"As I said, we'll get over the nerves once we get a little used to the surroundings and meet more people" she responded STILL sounding as though she was giving a speech. But she didn't mean to sound the way she did. It was just the way it came out of her mouth. And she didn't have much control over that.
