A brief look of outrage flashed across the courier's face as Alys nudged him, but it was followed immediately by guilt and a rueful exasperation. "Yeah, yeah, blame it on the messenger. Everyone always does, anyways," he grumped, but there was a grin tugging at the corners of his mouth as he nudged his friend back. "Talyson Seawright, and that's Boreal," he added, introducing himself to Asra before turning back to Noah.
Bats, huh? Bats weren't so bad... but their guano certainly was. Tal wrinkled his nose and frowned in resignation at the task but he didn't flee back out into the rain. It had to be done, and Noah's explanation of who was using the Temple and why had him ducking his head to hide his wince at the same time Alys did.
And like Alys, he looked down at the crate of supplies in his arms longingly. He enjoyed organizing things and putting everything in its proper place. There would have been a certain meditative comfort to that task, but...
Hail. He couldn't leave Alys to tackle the bat room alone. With a long-suffering sigh the courier set the box aside for whichever lucky helper got to do the stocking, and then he rolled up his sleeves and followed his fellow Halovian. On the downside, the furniture was, in fact, a mess. On the upside, sticking it outside the in rain would do a good job of sluicing off the worst of it, so he held his breath and set about shifting the furniture outside for a wash.
Tal moves the furniture out of the bat room and into the rain to get sluiced off!
