[ anyway im so proud of myself for being so fucking wrong
but oh. as ever, temenos is very placid, though he does smile when she pulls the helmet off, a bit softer at the edges than he might have before. ]
I think I'm quite glad to see your face. [ it's a step in trust, really - for someone who doesn't trust much. ] And am I to keep calling you Rabbit, like this?
[ in the tone of "i'm going to bully the shit out of you with this name for the rest of our time together you fucked up now" ] I see. I will keep that in mind.
Still, it is a pleasure. In private, don't feel as if you've any need to hide your face, mm? If there's anything a cleric is quite good at, it's keeping secrets.
I know you know exactly what I mean. You have something for trying to help out lost lambs. I'm sure I'm the cutest and the most wayward lamb you've encountered.
[ Life is rough when you're this cute, right? ] You already know that tonight is the exception, and I won't be lead around so easily.
[ Letting her hand remain on his cheek. ]
If you wish to see my face, then I'll gladly show it. I might even consider dressing up for you from time to time. Anything for my cute detective. [ Letting her hand move to his shoulder. ] You should also take pleasure to know you're the first. You almost weren't.
[ he's so gracious that he'll let wang wu decide if it's cutest or most wayward. (it's most wayward.)
he reaches up to pat her hand, after a moment. pat, pat. ]
Well. What a blessing. [ this sounds sarcastic but it's affectionately, at least, and he does smile over at her, a bit wry. ] Am I merely the first because I asked...?
[ They have decided it's definitely cutest or a little bit of both. ]
I'm glad you're aware that it is. [ A blessing. They are going to ignore the sarcastic part of his voice. ] Someone from another team did ask before you. As tempting as it was to let someone else be first, I really wanted my first to be with one of my cute rabbits.
[ Whether they were waiting for him specifically to ask, they aren't going to say. ]
How bold. We so rarely respect privacy, nowadays. [ people just out here asking npcs to unmask? he looks thoughtful for a moment... maybe he'll do the same later in the week....
anyway he's obviously joking, so. ] Well. You ought to hint to the others they're allowed the privilege. If not, I will - best not to be cooped up in there if you don't want to be, at least around us.

Should that not be my question? The night waits, not strikes.

You could give a try once in a while. [ It seems like they are considering it. ]
I don't want to just tell you what you need to do, but I might consider ceding to you this if you ask for it.

[ he's the inquisitor, after all. he asks. someone answers. simple as that.
but. after a long moment - and what a marked difference, compared to the awfully tight-lipped way he was around phoenix just a few days before... ]
Fine. [ alright. ] Show me your face, then, Rabbit.
1/2
You know, there is a part of me that will miss having this as a secret from you.
[ Moving their hand to their mask to lift it up. Pausing for a moment. ]
I do intend on getting something in return for this though.
[ And with that... ]

She seems to consider it for a moment. ] While I have grown rather fond it, I suppose you have earned a name as well.
[ They reach for their hair to play with the strand a bit as if they are a shy maiden. ]
My name is Wang Wu. You may call me by my name or the beautiful black sheep of the Spirit Blade Sect. [ Giving a wink ]

[ She's realizing she's hecked up. Crossing her legs gracefully as she leans into his space. Reaching up to give his cheek a pat. ]
You're lucky I'm feeling rather magnanimous tonight. You would do well to remember that I will give equally to what I've given though.
