[It's not often that Jade makes use of the network herself, preferring to respond to others, and she's been as preoccupied by the trials as many others have this past week. Even so, something troubling has come to her attention, and she would rather not sit and wonder and worry needlessly, if it indeed ends up being needless.]
I realize there's a great deal going on right now, and so I'll make this brief.
[Her tone is careful and refined, but there's certainly worry beneath all of that, thinly-veiled.]

You have hardly been my constant companion these past twenty years. I would have you remember that.
[Well, sixteen, but twenty sounds more theatrical.]

She huffs softly, irate.]
No, I have not, nor have you been mine.
[They're strangers. The Jade and Jasper that had coexisted in Heliodor all those years ago are both long gone, for better or for worse.]
But I will not tell you how to manage your own disappointments. I would ask that you leave me to handle mine my own way, as well.

[With that, he'll leave her on read.
He cannot blame her for not trusting him in the present - but he can blame her [or her guardian] for not trusting him in the past.]
