have you ever seen temenos lose his shit because that's exactly what happens. he makes a noise that's like - bwah?!, half of a shriek that is absolutely undignified - he does not drop his staff but he grabs onto jolyne for like. DEAR LIFE. thankfully he weighs like four pounds.
and since she comes close she gets to get hit with a tidal wave of emotions. apparently, under that neat placid surface, there's a whole lot. first it's like absolute, utter surprise, an immediate fear reaction, a "what the hell" reaction followed by realization, and then like. a combination of both resignation and indignity and a little embarrassment at his overreaction - ]
[ her wings give a little flutter as she dips downwards, between some of the taller buildings. she adjusts to make sure she's holding him nice and securely before turning her eyes to meet his. ]
Though you could use an... elevated perspective! I was just going scouting and I couldn't resist, okay?
[ you know how when you pick up a cat and its like somewhere between "YOU KICK MIETTE LIKE FOOTBALL" betrayal and "i'm going to eat your face off" and extremely startled
that's what the look on his face is. he is full startled cat mode ]
You could ask. [ GODS okay well. he's not getting down anytime soon apparently so he has to give up and just clings on to both jolyne and the rest of his dignity. ]
[ the vibes are simply: but i won't. she'll bank a bit and let a warm thermal of air lift her higher, so that perhaps they can even see the church in all of its glory from this high, the whole damn thing. she'll give it a full, wide circle. ]
C'mon, relax. I'm not going to drop you - I've got you safe and sound, okay? Have a little fun. Doesn't it look awesome from this view?
I've got you safe and sound is a strange thing to hear from someone who kidnaps you.
[ temenos mutters, but it's clearly just being sassy for being sassy's sake. he doesn't quite relax, still just white knuckling his hold here, but he does warily look out. it is a nice view. ]
... The last time I was lifted like this, I think it was by a monster. [ okay that's a joke, at least: his emotions settle into wary amusement, and a little tiny bit of wonder. ] This is admittedly far more pleasant.
[ she gives him an easy wink. there's a full-chested confidence in this girl as she brings them closer towards a few fun reflective buildings nearby. ]
