It's alright. I can't say it's the first time I've been shot with an arrow. [ adventuring is hard ] But, the doctors at the hospital have taken quite good care of it, for now. I'm just not to strain it too much with overuse, so, you'll have to jailbreak on your own.

Ah. Hospital.
[ he says this a little fondly but only because he's been corrected like ten times and just keeps calling it the wrong name out of habit and now it's kind of funny. you moderns and your hospitals.
but. he can pick up on that sense of anger immediately, and hums, the noise soft. ]
Mm. As always - the truth of these matters will lie deep in the roots. [ what's heavily implied here is that those roots will need to be yanked up, one way or another.
there's a thoughtful pause, and temenos lowers his voice a bit. ] I've a few things I'd like to discuss with you in perhaps more private avenues, once you're out.
[ and then, brighter: ] All of that aside - are you alright? Don't tell me that you've also spent plenty of time behind bars. [ more teasing, and lighter, easily changing the subject as one of these cops looks over and then ignores them again. ]

[she sticks her arm through the bars... can she reach him?]
Yeah... It's harder to get out without our abilities.
But that means you'll be better at it the next time we have to break somebody out of jail, right?

[she huffs a little.]
I could've told you our abilities would stop working... But you tried to save Mika. So it's okay, I'm not mad.

I'm okay. But they were saying some really mean things about Mika at her execution... You missed it.
[yeah she's smacking her you're right--
no, she's just reaching over to take her hand pat it. pat, pat. there, there. normal human behavior.]

...We knew about that anyway, thanks to Rita. We didn't run in here quite that recklessly.
[they had a plan to do this without relying on powers on the inside, but it just kind of went wrong.]

Hm... If they change their minds, we'll come up with another plan.
Hehe, literally...?

[she just

[sometimes... the only option is to fail because you are in an mg...
