"I don't- even-" he starts off confusedly or maybe just frustrated, and then Jesse settles into his feet more, shoulders slouching down like he knows he's in for the long haul here. He wets his lips, folds his hands behind his back and leans in a little, bends that bit just so he's more at her height than he normally is.
"Yeah. Hi." It takes him a beat to drum up their first meeting, enough to remember her name. "Kenzi." It's Kenzi, right? "You're off the hook for the tacklin'. Promise." Okay, so he was holding it against her for the most of this conversation so far, though it really was during- that whole crazy week. When most of everyone was off their rocker. He really can't hold it against her, and so he promptly drops it. "Ya always hold up guests on the porch like this or'm I a special case?"
