[Tempest doesn't even live in HQ anymore, but he does occasionally come back to make deals with gods (as grumpy as that makes him) and heal people, though contacting him can be inconsistent.
Really, it's a matter of timing. He just happens to be leaving the shrine room when Kida arrives, and the smell of human blood (even if it's just in his clothes) is pervasive enough to catch his attention.
He looks over his shoulder at Kida, not even really registering him yet.]
You okay?
[Tempest looks different now. A little taller, broader, with hair a bit darker and in a long braid that ends at the small of his back.]
[Returning to hut sometime later!! And not really noting much other than that there are voices coming out of it when there really should just be Muirin napping in there.
He's not paranoid or anything, but he casually slips a knife out of his sleeve as he pushes his way in.]

What'd she do?

[ The fox struggles. "It wasn't me! It was Lettie!!" But Natsume just gives her a little shake and she falls still. ]
I know the difference between your scents like the very fur on my back. Don't try to outfox me.

Hops onto a branch directly above him, hooks his knees over it and dangles upside down to say hi.
...This would probably be smoother if his heavy braid weren't on a direct coarse for Aeron's face.]

Well. Hello.

She's napping in her and Tide's hut, out of the sun. The doorway is only simply shells strung together, and thus pretty open.

WHOAH. Well you're both familiar and different. And Kida's not sure how to respond at first, besides staring.
Buut after a moment he frowns, gets to his feet, and marches over fully intending to try to punch Tempest. Just a little.]
no subject
[turns and meets him, closing the distance halfway.]
Are you injure--
[WOAH OKAY CATCHING THAT PUNCH WITH A HAND.]
