Mm. You kept your composure. You're quite seasoned in high pressure situations, aren't you?
[ not so much a knight newly anointed. he tilts his head. ] Though, perhaps you're just the sort to roll with the punches...
[ is that a masochism joke. he'll never tell.
anyway, carrying on - temenos huffs a little, waving his hand at the concern. ]
At any rate, I'm perfectly fine; you hardly need to worry over me. It really was only a simulation, and it's not the first time I've even been attacked like that. [ so many enemies in octopath do blind effects its terrible ] Not to mention, it got us the evidence that we needed to put Scien away, so it was worth it. I worry more for Yuri.
anyway, the reassurances get him to frown, but he doesn't press the issue. ]
... Yes, she certainly seems to have endured much already, the events here only burdening a person already bearing too much. [ just judging by her... everything ] It is a relief that many here already seem to care for her.
[ normally, he uses that term a little more teasingly, or meanly, but with yuri, it's a more accurate assessment. she does, to him, feel like a baby lamb, staring up at you with big, sad eyes (eye?), looking for all the world in need of guidance. ]
But, you're right. I imagine many of us have been through some sort of struggle, before our time here. Perhaps that is what we ultimately all have in common.
That does seem to be the common thread. [ i mean, from the monster thread alone ] And it does make sense. It would be difficult for us to acclimatize to this environment otherwise.
Unlikely. I am unconvinced that Scien killed Master Dahut of his own accord. While it could be a ruse from him after the possibility of interference had already been raised, I have trouble believing it.
[ looks sweatily at execution from sunday. yeah! yeah ]
He was quite vocal about wanting to experiment upon and remove the nanites that are being used to supposedly help us acclimate. [ And suppress our abilities. ] If we consider those as a source of potential control, then perhaps someone or something was not too keen on the idea of us finding a way free from its suppression.

[ he drums his fingers along the bar ]
It is unfortunate, but it can also be uniting.

[ an optimistic one? well, maybe not. it's kind of a nice way.
his emotions are placid, here, a little thoughtful. ]
Perhaps nothing unites and divides us more alike than our situation today. One has to wonder if this is the last we hear of similar.
[ and there's a flicker of doubt, there. like perhaps temenos is very, very cynical to the idea that this was a one and done deal. ]

It may have been extreme enough to cause more insurgency rather than quell what already exists.
