Jude dropped in at noon.

Didn't get the name of Max (WuffyWuff), Jacota (EmiRose)
Jude and Travis talked about the technology level of Manta Carlos, and chatted a bit about Shiro being a cat and Ysolde being a dragon. Jude excused himself briefly, returning in the midst of Travis and Rory talking about fireworks. He asked Xavi about their unusual hair, learning that it's natural, and then spoke a bit about Vexi.
He learned Seven's 'name', as well as his species and a bit about his culture. It was brought up that Hazel was adopting Seven, leading to an awful lot of discomfort and confusion. Jude thought it was really weird that Hazel (who looked 14 and was apparently 20) was adopting someone who was already half her age she had no apparent connection to. He barely held his tongue, but not everyone else did, making several comments.
Flo cartwheeled in, giving Travis a 'nam flashback, and Jude quickly asked what Flo could do with her powers. He learned it was glitter, and then watched them turn into some kind of monstrous demon, which didn't exactly calm anyone down.
Archer showed up as well, and Jude explained a bit about what they'd been like in another world. They didn't get to talk too long before Cardinal and Ava started playfighting really hard, and Jude became distracted, concerned something was going to seriously happen.
He ended up getting in a near-argument with Ava when he asked how she'd known Kaiju was wearing a human charm, with her interpreting him as being argumentative, when really it was just blatant curiosity.
There was even more arguing from Defiant and everyone else when Shiro started getting pet, with the Defiant generally finding it weird. Things got even more heated when Haven started getting upset over being called Pinky. Cardinal correctly pointed out that the only difference between him calling Lockris a 'vore dragon' and him being called 'pinky' is that one was affecting him, and Jude ended up telling Haven that he needed to calm down once he started yelling. It was obvious there were hurt feelings, only Jude was very firmly of the opinion that Haven was particularly childish. The fact that he stuck around sulking only added to that, rather than just leaving.
Altizica returned, being really fucking weird, and Jude explained the general idea of fifth dimensional beings to people. Jii showed up, and Jude explained the story of why they were little. He didn't stick around long after that, leaving at 3:40 to go watch some MCU movies.
