[ he huffs a little. Somewhere between semi fond tomodachi feelings and also maybe a little bit of a wince at the reference. Nodd…. ]
Yes, well. You’re not that hard to read. [ for temenos at least. ] …I talked to Nodd quite a bit after. I hope you two were able to talk before Sunday’s events: I’m not sure if he learned a lesson, but I tried.
He is quite the romantic. He told me once he would risk the world if it meant not sacrificing someone he cared for. I had wondered if it was me who was callous...

[ last weekend sucked so bad, actually ] ... cannot say that I regret defending her, and I would not.

And I am sure you have plenty experience with both. Will you be continuing your efforts?
no subject
Haha. I wouldn't be much of a shepherd if I didn't, would I?
no subject
You truly are tireless, Temenos. [ but also ] I hope this week has been kinder to you.
