It would, yes, but... well. I don't really want to interfere with anyone's work by potentially putting myself in danger, so I'm really just doing what I can here.
[It's a compromise he can live with, at the very least.]

[Hanzo is courteous enough to not take up too much of the man's time, so he turns to look over as he suds his hair with the shampoo they provided. It smells like flowers, and he doesn't know how he feels about it, but he'll take whatever he can get for now.]
Thank you. This seems almost inappropriate now, but what is your name?
My name is Hanzo.
[He rinses the shampoo and slicks on the conditioner quite quickly until he's satisfied.]

On the contrary, it is strange that you expect me to recognize it.
[Temple has never met any waterbenders and he has no idea that it is even called waterbending. So he has no idea how he is supposed to recognize it.]

Salt and malt vinegar? Hmm...
[Yeah, he's only really familiar with rice vinegar, so...]
Well, if I see a place offering that, I'll have to give it a try. Though, you're saying that's actually worth trying?
[...
you know what fuck it he'll see how it tastes.]
...
Actually, yes, that is a lot better than I expected.

Oh, I agree. I know people who'd have problems, but I certainly don't.
Anyway, I'm Tarrlok, and yes, I woke up on the moon not too long ago.

Well, I suppose it's just a symptom of being from different realities, then, since... that seems to be the prevailing theory. In any case, I can do plenty of things with it...
[...he'll just go ahead and freeze an encroaching vine, why not.]
Like that, for example.

Whoa!! [He looks even more astonished as he watches the vine get frozen.] Water and ice?! You're too powerful, pal!! You could be a perfect bartender!
[oh good the complimentary shampoo is that nice good floral shit. tarrlok is super stoked for when he can actually take a shower properly. now he can continue to smell like a lady good as hell.
...wait yeah. it does seem a little...]
...no, no, it's fine. It's not like this is the most usual of situations, after all. I'm Tarrlok.

Well... it's some sort of alternate universe thing, I suppose. It's probably best not to think about it too hard.
[this is going to give him a headache...]

[ Lucifer smiles at that before handing over said scoop. ]
Curiosity is a good temptress.
[ After he goes for a taste! ... Hmm. It wasn't what he was expecting, but it wasn't terrible either? ] Salty.

Some kind of alternate universe thing? What do you mean by that?
[Temple is not sure whether he means they come from different universes or that his powers use alternate universes.]

[He turns away from Tarrlok out of courtesy, glancing at him over his shoulder as he rakes his fingers through his conditioned hair. The smell is growing on him though.]
I can safely say I have never been in a situation quite like this one. [Hanzo means with the plants and being in a strange place without warning. Not the washing himself in the same room as a perfect stranger. That part is not so unusual.]
Tarrlok? What kind of place do you come from?

A... bartender?
[that sort of threw him off after he was kinda actually enjoying being considered some kind of mystical wizard instead of a reasonably skilled water bender...]
I... can’t say I’ve ever considered that, though it’s not the worst backup plan...

I’d imagine most of us haven’t.
[like, he’d be surprised if they had, tbh... he’ll cross his arms somewhat thoughtfully.]
Anyway, I’m originally from the Northern Water Tribe, but I currently live in Republic City. Which... well, no one else seems familiar with my version of things so far.

Oh, I mean that I think we’re probably from different universeses. At least, that’s the most logical explanation I can find for any of this.
[Even if it sounds like total bullshit.]

It’s more fun for you to guess than for me just to tell you, though, isn’t it?
...regardless, I’m not sure if I actually have an answer for this, even if there might be preferences in what you can actually do with them. It’s a really bizarre question, and I kind of hope the next one makes more sense.

[He’ll take a relatively small scoop, give it a taste, and...]
Hm.
[He’ll take another taste to try and confirm...]
I don’t hate it, It reminds me of a dish from back home, actually, though I always preferred the sweet variety to the savory or salty variety.

[Tarrlok feels a little antsy about it, considering he wants to be a man of action... but at the same time, if there are serious consequences, it’s not a good look for him if he wants to actually get anywhere here politically. So, you know.]
Well, keep an eye out. It’s probably a bad idea to anger the people bankrolling us here.

But by then it will be cooled down and not as good.
[Cyrus is somewhat #firstworldproblems and it shows, like now. Complete with a little bit of petulant pouting because HOW DARE these symptoms get in between her and good chocolate!!!]
It's a dilemma.
[Who let this girl become a police officer?!]

[That is something they could all relate to.]
Water Tribe? [Fascinating. He's never heard of any of these things and he is curious. Hanzo finishes washing his hair and shuts off the water so he can grab a towel to dry himself and then wrap around him.]
I have never heard of any Water Tribe. You are free to stay and tell me more if you do not have other plants to freeze elsewhere.

Ah, but you could heat it up again, couldn’t you?
[A pause.....]
...but it is a hassle, isn’t it.
