Jeremy let out a sigh once he was handed the paper and pencil and he turned his attention to Connor. Figuring that he didn't have much of a choice, he went ahead and got started on drawing the tattoo, though he was surprised to hear Belle speak to him. Looking up at her, he offered a small smile. "I'm sure he won't hurt me. He needs me to draw this tattoo, after all," he told her quietly, hoping that he was right, but more so hoping that he could ease Belle's worries. Hearing Connor, though, a frown came to Jeremy's features and he turned his attention to the hunter, narrowing his eyes with annoyance. "You really expect me to listen to you?" he asked simply. He didn't care who thought what of him. So what if he cared about Belle? Nobody had the right to judge that. Not his sister and certainly not this hunter who didn't even know him. It wasn't something that he was going to deal with anymore.
Turning his attention back to the drawing, he continued to speak with Belle, opting to ignore Connor except to draw the tattoo. "Just ignore him, Belle," he told the girl after a moment, "He's not worth getting worked up over." And, he wasn't, in Jeremy's eyes. If the man was going to speak rudely about Belle, then Jeremy had absolutely no reason to listen to him about anything.
"Force hurts humans. Last I checked, Jeremy's a human," Letha drawled with a low scoff. She remained quiet for a few moments, watching as Belle followed Jeremy into the room. She could hear part of what was going on inside, but she didn't hear any immediate danger-related words being spoken. Sure, whoever was in there sounded like a complete vampire-phobic jerk, but he was probably chained up tight, so she wasn't too worried about Belle at the moment. Letting herself relax, just a little, she leaned back in her chair. She wasn't going to let Klaus think that she was just going to sit down and roll over like some pet, just because he had told her to silence. She wasn't really one to listen to authority the past few years - what vampire really was? And she wasn't going to let this hybrid think that he had an upper hand. Turning her attention to him, she let a frown take over her features.
"Either he doesn't want anybody to use the cure against him or he actually needs the cure for something. It doesn't even have to be himself," she told Damon after a moment, opting to avoid speaking with Klaus unless she absolutely had to - and the only reason she would have to would be to distract him so that Belle and Jeremy could get out (and, okay, maybe Damon, too.)
