Super common? [TECHNOLOGY]
Like... everyone just, has one of these?

[Luke stops in place, gesturing at his own face, then pointing at Senri's.]
Someone snuck in and put mud and cucumbers all over your face!

So you can talk to people far away, and do the picture and moving picture thing?
That's... awesome!
[this, more than anything, is genuinely getting him interested in fontech.]
Do you think that I could try it? The picture thing, I mean.

Hm?
[senri tilts his head at that and seems to hesitate a second - but ultimately does hand luke his phone. he does that thing where he relocks it and opens only the camera so luke can't open anything else, nothing personal.]
... mmm, sure, I guess. But please be suuuuper careful. My whole life is on here.

[senri is in east wing - mostly. he's actually in the temple briefly to grab onto the stuff he needs for his nightly skincare routine? and it's as he's exiting and heading for east wing again that he
ends up bumping shoulders with luke.
probably not a surprise considering how lost senri looks]
Oh - sorry....

Senri? Woah--[a bottle slides out of Senri's arm, and Luke grabs it out of the air, holding it out to him.]
...I don't think I need to ask you if you're okay. [he's clearly not.]
Do you want to talk?

How is mud good for your skin? Most people spend all their time just trying to wash it off...
...And anyway, you look good just the way you are. Why would you need to look better?

[He nods, taking it in his hand, and stares at the screen. For a minute or so, he looks around the room via only the screen, clearly intrigued, but not taking any pictures.
When he finally swings the lens back around, he stops on Senri--
--and takes a picture of him.]
Gotcha!

You don't have to--
[He holds up his hands as soon as Senri takes the bottle, waving away his dumb question.]
Yeah, let's do that. I mean, unless you have, uh... [He looks at the collection of supplies, and hazards a guess:] ...beauty stuff you need to do?

[wha-]
I'm not flirting with you! [stupid!!!] F-Finish your face stuff, or whatever!

With you?
[He stares at the bottles, confused by what purpose they hold, what powers they contain, and seems to make up his mind.]
I mean... sure. Why not, right?

[Pointedly ignoring the ribbing, he blasts on into the second questions. Staring at the mud, it's clear he's unconvinced—but curious.]
...Fine. [MUD.] ...Do you have a... a bucket of it, or something? [And:] Do I have to eat the cucumbers?
...Fine. [MUD.] ...Do you have a... a bucket of it, or something? [And:] Do I have to eat the cucumbers?
[Luke nods—but he's more focused on Senri, than answering the statement.]
Well, I already put mud on my face. This can't be weirder. [Despite his genuinely tonedeaf commentary, he seems genuinely concerned for his skincare partner.
But it's the line about Ishi that seems to stop him.]
Uh-- he talked to you about me? [Dumb. Of course people talked to each other about other people. Sheepishly, he rubs the back of his head.] ...I think I should be thanking him more than anyone thanking me. He's a really good guy.

[ . . . . senri blinks, then his expression melts into something fond..]
.... yeah, he is.
[ . . . ]
Please continue to get along with him. He's prickly sometimes but... I'm worried that I've been leaving him alone too much around here.
He really likes music, if you need something to talk to him about.

Music? [what luck] What kind of music?
Maybe I can find something he'd like?
