[ jesus. well at least he just seems amused...? and probably making fun of him like, a little bit. or a lot of bit. this is how he treats his friends. ]
And I'm sure you will not regret this a whit. Do you have a preference for your type of poison?
[ he doesn't mind temenos' taunts right now, because they come coupled with temenos' attention. in a surprise display of manners, he pulls a chair out for the priest before himself. ]
I like when it tastes like tree or dirt or a confection.
... That was a metaphor for the gambling itself, but, your answer explains some things. [ help. he seems very amused, and when the chair is pulled out for him, he drops into it with a little nod. ]
[ he's going to watch nodd play for a couple rounds, first - just to get the hang of how to - but as nodd has likely figured out, temenos is pretty clever. he'll catch on quickly.
for now he just observes, and chuckles a little. ]
[ there's an eyebrow raise, but all right. he leans forward, tucking his hair behind his ear so it doesn't get in his way, and daintily blows on the dice. good luck. ]
May Bifelgan guide your fortune.

[ nodd scooches temeno's chair back inward and takes the one next to him. let's see. add the diceset proficiency and--
10 + 3 (dex) + 1 (prof) = 14
not bad! it's not a windfall, but his first roll of the in-world dice comes out decent. ]

I've gambled with Throné quite a few times. We play poker fairly often. [ secret temenos lore ] I don't really believe in removing yourself from parts of life simply because I am in the clergy. Should Aelfric dislike my behavior, he can strike me down.
