Zat is enough Mademoiselle Langley-Sohryu.

[His tone firm, attention taken but for the hand resting against Chihiro's shoulder, addressing their 'guard'.]

IF you 'ave ze time to be flapping your mouth, you 'are clearly not paying attention to your enemies.

[Lydia was cheering him on, before gently prompting Jacques to redirect that focus himself. C'mon Jacques, where's the fire of the Raging Skull? You need to help your friend.

His eyes widened, and he blinked and looked around. That had sounded like Lydia...but she had passed months before.

I'm here. I'm cheering you on! You can do it, Jacques!

Quieter encouragement, but no less enthusiastic as Lydia pointed his focus once more to Chihiro. Nodding to himself, Jacques tuned out anything Asuka might yell that wasn't a warning. Redirecting his attention to his task.]

I believe in you, petit-ami Chi'iro. You are not weak, you are strong in your own ways. Let us find ze information we are looking for, n'est-ce pas?

[Moving once more, rapidly translating and speaking as Chihiro moved through screens. Then...]

Sacre...zat cannot be. 'Zere, Chi-'iro, keep going!
