[ what a wild day! after the heroes go about their business, temenos can be find in the alley with the vending machines, hand to his chin, surveying his kingdom.
... by which i mean he has no fucking idea where to even START with all these drinks. can a guy just get a refreshing jam around here. send help this ye olde is in distress. ]

[ "NOT HERE I'M NOT" is correct.
but jolyne is here because she's been craving a soda, giving a big stretch of her arms as she approaches the general vending vicinity. a ye olde in distress is funny, and she just swans up curiously, though takes in his robes briefly with a half-beat of hesitance. ]
Youuuu... looking for something in particular?

[ thank you i thought that was appropriate
oh! there's company. temenos glances over his shoulder at the attention - his expression goes a bit sheepish, frowning as he brings his hand to his chin. ]
Ah... I'm afraid I'm a bit out of my depth. Was it that obvious? [ yes. ] ...Tea, perhaps.

Hey, you said it not me.
[ a small smile. ]
You want it cold? They come in cans with all kinds of flavors... but they also come plain too.
[ she searches the machine and points, there are just. a row of canned teas! sweet teas! black teas! green teas! white teas with blueberries! they're all chilled though. ]
Personally, I kinda like 'em a little sweet.

[ heh. he looks over her shoulder, leaning over to inspect the cans a little further, squinting a bit. none of the names on them sound familiar - even the packaging is odd. ]
I can't say I've ever had tea quite like this before, and certainly not in a manner that might be cold. [ a pause. ] Well, at least on purpose.
[ he smiles a little back at her, returning the gesture - there's a slightly playful air to his tone, a lilty loftiness as he puts one hand on his heart and leans back. ] Sweet sounds good to me. I'm in your capable hands.

[ barazona iced tea with a beefy man flexing on the can, available at your capsule hotel in oceanside city now!!!!! ]
Careful there, Mr. Hound... [ she reads! wow! ] Maybe I'd be mean enough to set you up with something nasty. I'm not a nice girl.
[ but she'll look over the choices and will find two because she's a lil thirsty too. the first can that tumbles out is a delightfully jammy raspberry black tea. the other is the aforementioned blueberry white tea with a Hint of Mint. ]
These should be good though, scout's honor. [ she was never a scout. ] Let's grab some cups.

[ he's really going to have to get used to being called the hound by people once again. at least it's not an unfamiliar nickname, even though the context is typically different - but somehow, that makes it even stranger. to be the hound without the rest of the sentence, to be called it without the attachment of the crows and their ilk. it's a name to be reinvented.
he hums, light, amused. ]
Well. It'd be quite remiss of me to assume the worst. [ he says, as the guy who assumes the worst of literally all things at all times. ] But thankfully, I've a decent nose for what's sweet and what's not.
[ get it, he's the dog. whether he's talking about the tea or the girl? who's to say!
with that though he nods, gesturing outwards towards the little lobby area. ] I imagine we'll find some back inside. Thank you - let's see. Jolyne, no?

Hm.
[ that is a terrible joke. ]
That's right. Just Jolyne.
[ to the lobby area they go! jolyne will take the cans and head on over where they can find some cups and will just drop down unceremoniously. ]
So what were you up to before they decided to volunteer you for hero work?
[ that is a terrible joke. ]

Just Jolyne. [ still a bad joke ] Lead the way.
[ and he will follow! calm and placid as ever, holding his staff and walking at a sedate pace. when she drops down, he comes to join her across the way, neatly settling in a seat. ]
Ah... nothing too exciting. I'd had quite the conversation with someone who I found myself at odds with, and when all was said and done, found myself here. [ an extremely vague answer but like what do you expect ] What about you?

A fellow cleric, a nun.
[ so, close enough. he's smiling as he says it, the usual placid expression he always seems to wear. ] Rather, a heretic who'd been playing the part of one for quite some time, who had rather grand plans of bringing about the destruction of the world.
I suppose the punch in the face was a bit metaphorical, but the meaning is the same.

[ it literally just. takes her a minute... she looks like maybe she's trying to stop herself from going on a face journey to literally anywhere but here. until finally: ]
You think they have like... a club for this kinda thing.
[ because uh ]
That or it's a really... really weird coincidence.
[ why do weird religious people/heretics wanna just end the world? ]

Sounds about right to me.
[ she makes a face. this whole superhero thing is so silly to her (a jojo). but it is what it is. ]
Weird thing to have in common with a total stranger. So... you're a priest too, then...? And no diabolical plans to end the world. Maybe you'll change my mind on how I feel about the clergy these days.

[ it really do be like that ]
Ahaha. No, no diabolical plans of ending the world - nowadays, apparently I'm saving it.
[ both here and outside. ] As for the clergy, well - you can feel however you like about them, and I certainly won't stop you. Some are good. Some are bad. And some apparently deserve a very, very good punch in the face.
That being said, I am a member of the clergy, yes, but I'm not technically a priest. An inquisitor and a cleric, if we split hairs on the matter.

Oh, you know.
[ with a little shrug, he will list off his duties, light and lofty: ]
Guiding wayward lambs onto the proverbial path, giving services and Sunday school, memorizing history and scripture, doing errands for the Pontiff, interrogating and occasionally smiting heretics... The usual.
[ is that actually the usual ]

[ thank you sweet lamb ]
I did. Mine is of Chiemi.
It's not a bad picture, I suppose. Odd to see a photo of myself, but no less invasive than our little database.
[ since hes never seen a photo before in his LIFE ]
This means there must be one floating around with your face on it, Jolyne.

wonder what happens if you manage to collect everyone on one team together... heh. maybe you can trade em in for a prize. or maybe it's just for fun. i'unno.
[ slowly starts her amazoom addiction (no) ]

Collector's pride, perhaps?
It doesn't seem like much of a thing to be worth a prize...but I suppose I could be wrong.
It could very well just be an incentive to get you to buy more.
[ partitio would love this ]
Well. Better this than the merchandise from that extremely strange merchant.
