[ From Temenos: Must we really only converse on these machines for now? I find it to be a bit cumbersome. ]
Is the technology too new for you? I believe you would be what the kids call a boomer. Unless you miss being in my presence already You can just come out and say it💕
Much of the technology here is very new to me, yes. This all blows the steam engine quite far out of the water, and the steam engine was particularly exciting.
As for the latter - perhaps, perhaps not. A mystery that cannot be well expressed over text. Alas... I suppose you'll never know...
[ there's no reply, but they don't have to wait long. eventually, temenos makes an appearance! he's shed his white cloak for the time being.
the door clicks shut, and he strides up to join them, hands together behind his back, with the slightest nod of his head by way of greeting. it's hard to tell what he's feeling, at the moment. ]
I assume the others filled you in on the proceedings?
[ this joke made me laugh irl you're my only friend
but yes!! when he is free from the confessional booth he will join them. ]
Your nicknames are a touch lacking in creativity, you know... [ teasing, though. ] I don't really do confessional from the other end, but the offer is appreciated.
Why in the world are we doing so poorly in those rankings? Not that they're particularly stringent at the moment, but I am curious.
[ help. he's here just kind of squinting at the offerings of modern food, but when he passes by the alcohol area, he's about to say something... then laughs. ]
Why am I not surprised?
[ he seems okay! very good at that being okay thing. ]
temenos is here also, in the bookstore, but he's holding a few books in his arms. he gives them a look up and down, and then looks past them at the door...? ]
[ Did Rabbit ever leave? No. They remained near even as other fussed over him or shoved healing things on him. If no one has retrieved his bonk stick, they will be picking it up to give it back though. ]
Ace said you all took a little detour. [ Let's focus on that and see how much Temenos can talk before they give even more away by fussing. ]
[ he is somewhere now, all set up. bonk stick in hand! he's using it like a walking stick now that he's not freely bleeding. he mostly just looks exhausted. ]
...yes. It was very strange. I had wondered if I was going to end up being pulled away, at some point, as the others did.
[ when snake arrives, he'll be tucked into his usual corner in the back, a cup of coffee already in front of him - he's tearing open little packs of sugar when they arrive to pour into it. there's like ten of them here. it's fine. ]
[ lmao well. he is immediately getting a drink also? coming over with a thing of red wine.
and then he just comes and sits down. ]
Poorly. [ yikes. ] A man's heart, quite literally removed from his chest and torn to shreds - and yet, we have nothing to show for it. Only the vain hope that perhaps whoever did it was at least on a team who has yet to act.
[ uses my default bc it matches her outfit. it's giving the crestlands!!! its giving flamechurch!!!
anyway. when wang wu arrives to the church, she'll see that the door is open. temenos is in here, looking like a fish who just got tossed right into the ocean, just perfectly at home: for someone who can be quite the heretic, who tends to really just say things, who tends to question the gods and all of their wisdom, it is very, very clear that this kind of place holds a very special place in his heart.
he's sitting over at the organ when rabbit walks in, and he lifts a hand to give her a wave. ]
I am. I've a feeling your worries cross nicely with them, anyhow.
[ he will offer her his arm as always, like a gentleman! some fresh air would probably do some good, and he's immediately settled into thoughtful, glancing over at her. ]
... When one uses their team power, does it draw from you?
[ temenos will come to join her once they're in the private room, coming to settle down. his monstery changes have settled a bit - there are no longer fluffy ears or a tail, but his eyes are that bright, glowy sacred flame blue, and if rabbit looks, she might see that the tops of his hands look like the skin has fractaled into stained glass. ]
It's over. [ he seems to be fine, as usual. maybe a little tired. ] ... I would have liked to come to what happened to Vane. The night is still young, I suppose.
[ he is still vaguely avoiding but it is near the end so... it seems... she can come closer. :nyeh:
what rabbit gets to feel is that temenos has a lot of very big baby emotions under his very placid expression. on sight, there's a bloom of fondness and friendliness, first - warmth and affection. under that is something more normal: thoughtfulness, wariness, and...anxiety as an undercurrent, which is definitely unusual. he looks very hard like he is trying to ignore the emotionshares. nyeh. ]
Preparations, I suppose. I've a few questions about the upcoming, but perhaps we can catch up first, if you'd like.

Week 1, Sunday
I wasn't one who lost a teammate this week.
What did you think of being in the audience?
Re: Week 1, Sunday
In a sense, it was good that there weren't as many so-called fans.
In another, I wish there had been.
I would have liked to chat with them.
[ "chat" ]
The tone of this week was markedly different than the last.
