[ this is my generic grown ass adult starter i apologize
anyway at some point in the evening, temenos is sitting in the bar area. he's got a glass of wine and one of the cookies from dahut and scien's display on a little plate near him, but more importantly, he's also got like a fuckoff large stack of papers, and he's scrolling (albeit slowly) on his IRIS, doing... something.
he glances off and offers greg a brief smile when he sees him in greeting, though. ]

It's their replacement head that lets 'em do it-- turns the clock back and drags us right from death, or from injury if we didn't actually kick the bucket. Pretty neat power, but definitely not a common one... and only works on us.
[the fondness gives way to a touch of something more like guilt.]
... Somehow, I can't say that surprises me. [ Certainly a more valid excuse for memory loss. ] You said his abilities were unique. Is a procedure like that abnormal?
It's pretty unusual for a prosthetic to do what theirs can... but replacements are common in the City. Plenty of people with new limbs, organs, heads-- you can get a full body replacement if you've got the money for it.
