( returning tezcatlipoca's call is difficult but not impossible. the wind is the most corrupting factorโeven the lightning isn't so bad now that he's used to it. it causes interference with his implant only occasionally.
when his voice is returned, it's blown out. like he's standing outside in a gale. )
The Imugi's not foolish enough to attack me in my domain, but thanks for the encouragement, Tez. ( for once, kaladin sounds thrilled. ) I should be trying to lure it away from the cities... Maybe I'll fly it your way!
( a forceful cracking noise signals another strike of lightning, nowhere near him. )
It is a shame we've been separated. You must keep everyone safe in Kagoshima.
[ Immediately, he grins when he listens to the response. Seriously, he barely even needs his omniscience, he swears. He ends up finding "his" people without it, no problem. ]
Ha! I'd appreciate it, honestly, since the fucker got away from me the first time. Unfinished business and all, but probably is more that it wasn't meant to be me striking that blow.
[ Whether it's true or not, he certainly believes that it got away because his luck is Cosmically Shit. This is also something I, the player, have just realized too and am laughing... rip tezca you suck ]
Sounds like I should place my bets on you instead, since y'know, this is the happiest you've sounded.
[ Keeping everyone safe pointedly goes without comment, though. Maybe he will, maybe he won't. His "protection" isn't exactly something you want anyways. ]
Right. The hands-off god. You interfered enough in mortal affairs, don't you think? ( kaladin doesn't laugh, but there's an obvious smile in his voice.
he's a windrunner. he belongs up here, soaring. unfettered. )
I missed this, Tez. Missed the wind...
Though I'd prefer it if the sky were clear, and there was sunshine. And you should be up here, too.
[ Itโs a playful, casual drawl, but just as much as Kaladinโs smile is obvious, so is Tezcatlipocaโs. Granted, thatโs easier to imagine, since heโs a guy thatโs usually smiling, but still.
โฆHeโs decided that he has a fondness for Kaladin. Of course heโs pleased to hear the guy sound happy for once. ]
Fingers crossed that Iโll join ya at least.
[ โฆNevermind the fact that itโs not strictly possible for him to fly unless he dons his regalia. Thatโs not the point. ]
Until then, youโre a warrior under my supervision, practically speaking. So just fight like Iโm watching, yeah?
[ Tezcatlipoca barks out a laugh, but it's deeply amused. ]
Making demands, huh? I'll be nice and call that cheeky.
[ But honestly... He's used to people not respecting him as a god should be (in his opinion) at this point. No one is exactly afraid of him like they should be, save for maybe Izou. Oh, well. ]
Yeah, you've got my blessing. That's a given, considering the work at hand. Too bad I can't give you a real one, but, hey, maybe when we regroup.
[ Can he even give a real blessing as a Servant? who knows... ]
Hey, I've got my eye on that heart for you. Perhaps we can consider it your favour bestowed and returned. ( a gale threatens to wash his voice out at the end, so he raises it as if that'll make a difference.
faulty connections have been a thorn in their collective sides all day; how will they regroup if they can't organize where and when effectively? )
I'd worry about having a blessing of Death hanging around for too long.
why is this so crazy yet so tender

it's as much a bonding activity for him as an induction: you fly with him and you're a member of bridge four. )
Does this mean I have your blessing? Such as it is, ( he teases him, A BAD BOY NOW THAT HE'S ALL EXCITED!!! )
