"Well, over there's a good clothing store." Jasmine pointed out, having gone to the store across from it before. "And I'm sure there's more options in here if we can't find what you want." she said, walking over towards the mentioned store.

He nodded, "Ok, let's look there," he said. He stopped talking for a few moments, "I need to use the restroom. I'll be right back," he said, finding a bathroom and heading inside.
As soon as he closed the door, he ran to the toilet and dropped to his knees, coughing, coughing up blood for a few moments. He panted after it all came out and leaned back onto his heels, pulling his License, looking at the incoming message.
A floating "X". He muttered in disgust and cleaned himself up before walking back out.

Jasmine nodded and stood waiting...having a peculiar feeling when he took longer than expected...her hand hovering near the glove strap on her other hand but she relaxed when he walked out, "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine," he said, hiding anything he could about what had just happened, trying to appear happy, even with his body at turmoil with itself, "Let's get looking."

"Sure." Jasmine replied, a little wary but hiding that as well as she walked with him while he looked...ready to catch him if he were to fall.

Nice callback
After a little bit of time, he found a white button up shirt, a vest, and a suit jacket, both in black, along with black slacks. He would just wear his current Deka boots.
He took his License out and put it aside while he walked into a changing room to change. The License was separated just because he hoped she might look, see something was wrong. Or that maybe she would use her powers on it. He didn't want to say anything, he didn't want to worry her, but he wanted that possibility to be present, for someone else to know.

Jasmine watched him go in the changing room and saw that he left his license....an SP License was a Deka's life...and to lose it for only a second was a great offense....unless...he wanted her to see it somehow...
With a little hesitation, she walked over to his License quietly, her boots padding softly on the carpeted floor as she released her glove strap and reached out her hand to touch the License. With the use of a medium, Jasmine could read the mind of the individual that had used it or touched it.
(Your choice on what she sees)

Hoji wasn't going to walk out soon enough to stop her, due to the buttons.
The flashes after touching the License would show Jasmine pain. Just pure pain of Hoji's past. Images that he believed it may have looked like to lose his parents. Images of comrades he had seen dying in the past.
Then a mysterious man in a white uniform approaching Hoji, speaking, but no sound coming out of his mouth. Then Yuki and Sakura of the Hathaway Foundation, and knowledge that the Hathaway Foundation was an enemy. Just a sense of feeling like he had to stop them.
And then pain again. Blood. Flashes of him bleeding from the mouth in private, struggling to stay standing at times. And then, his eventual death after refusing to see the man in white again.

Pain. That's what Jasmine felt as she fell to one knee, her hand recoiling from the License in shock as she quickly put her glove back on, but her face looked as if she had seen a ghost.

Hoji came out of the dressing room with the top few buttons of the shirt undone and open, and the vest all the way up.
He was about to ask how it looked when he saw her on the ground. He rushed over, grabbing her shoulders, "Jasmine-chan! What's wrong?" he asked quickly.

"I...I'm alright." Jasmine replied, color returning to her face some as she spoke.

"What happened?" he asked with concern.

"I felt the pain of another...saw what they had gone through..." Jasmine said looking up at him.

"Whose pain did you see?" Hoji asked, helping her to her feet, holding her so she wouldn't fall. "There aren't many around."

Jasmine leaned on him as she looked in his eyes, "Yours...Hoji." she said, breaking the ice while regaining her breath
