Johnathan couldn't help but turn to look at Izkry with a small, bashful smile as he politely bowed his head while he answered "[color=39b54a]Danke, through I still have a [i]long[/i] way to go before I'm confident enough to [i]try[/i] and hold a conversation in Germany...[/color]" While he was somewhat used to being praised for his achievements in academy, it was still nice to hear someone offer him a compliment. While he hadn't known Izkry or his sister for very long, it was interesting to meet people who had been in Europe and seen the situation over there themselves... even if Belasý seemed to possess a hatred for the Germans that was rather unhealthy for any worshiper of god to possess.  

He couldn't help but notice the brief interaction between Izkry and Óscar and the... well, mild hostility that seemed to be between them, through he had no idea as to why. While Óscar was quick to head off to somewhere a little more private in order to get changed, Johnathan considered just outright asking Izkry what the problem was, but quickly decided against it, instead asking "[color=39b54a]So Izkry, where did you learn german?[/color]"
