Jean's eyebrows arch noticeably - or at least noticeably for Jean's standards - as Eliot's enumerates each one of those creatures. The talking bear and walking tree may have been a little too much for him. Yup, he's totally bonkers. That's the only reasonable explanation at this point. And he also suspects Eliot is being particularly thorough in his description to tease him.

If that's the case, it's working splendidly.

"What was so excellent about the overcoat?" he asks after a small pause, focusing on the only part that seems to make any frigging sense.

All the while, he's working on the pasta with a little less preternatural dexterousness than Eliot. In fact, a drop of red sauce on the corner of his mouth gives him a somewhat childish look. Apparently, no amount of shock and nonsense will prevent him from enjoying good food.
