[THIS VICTORY IS HIS... For now. Who knows how long it'll last, but he's enjoying it while it does.]

Just like, five more minutes! Or maybe ten. That's not too bad, right?

[arseid]

... You will release me after five minutes.

[ It's not worded as a question, but it is sort of muffled because she's still face-first in a pillow. ]

[sharplydressed]

Sure, sure! Five minutes.

[He says that...

but he says it in the tone of someone who Does Not Mean It.]

[arseid]

... Will you let me move at least a little?

[sharplydressed]

Only if you promise not to leave.

[HE SEES HER GAME.]

[arseid]

You have my word. Five minutes.

[ GEEZ KASHUU YOU KNOW SHE'S HONORABLE. ]

[sharplydressed]

Fine...

[RELUCTANTLY EASING HIS DEATH GRIP. Enjoy the freedom while it lasts...]

I dunno how you can seriously hype yourself up to go out there when it's this cold, though.

[arseid]

[ Look, she's just gonna roll onto her side so she can breathe-- and wrap her arms around him for more of a snuggle and less of a restraint. There. Better? ]

My home used to get this cold, but I'd still have to rise early and train. It's almost nostalgic.

[sharplydressed]

[Much. He does immediately seem to settle down like the predictable idiot he is.]

Seriously? That sounds awful... Even in the winter in Kyoto or Kanazawa, it wouldn't get super cold.

[arseid]

[ Predictable idiots can be endearing, and Laura has to laugh a little. ]

Yes, well, it is another country. I think you'd have a harder time if I'd summoned you there, so at least this sort of weather shouldn't last.

[sharplydressed]

I don't like the cold.

[Thank you, captain obvious, for doing your job.]

I wonder... I'm not sure if any of us would have done really, really well if we ended up in a country like that. Except maybe the guys who spent time up north.

[arseid]

It wouldn't be something we should risk, I agree. Are you at least a little warmer now?

[ He'd barnacled pretty damn hard. ]

[sharplydressed]

Now that there aren't any holes in the shield, yeah.

["The shield", as in the blanket... THEIR DEFENSES WERE WEAK AND HE ALMOST DIED.]

What about you?

[arseid]

You're a very effective source of warmth when you're this close, you know.

[ SHE'S FINE. ]

[sharplydressed]

[SOMEHOW... he seems very proud of this.]

Thanks! I hold heat well.

[Maybe it's a sword thing. Most of them probably do, honestly.]

[arseid]

Well, you were born in a forge... I can't say I'm too surprised.

[ good thing he isn't scalding hot, honestly. ]

[sharplydressed]

[A GOOD THING INDEED... As far as he's concerned, he's a perfect temperature, though. Look at his proud face! Even if body temperature is honestly not something normal people would take pride in?? Okay, Kashuu.]

There are lots of good things about being born in a forge, y'know. Like, I'm the perfect temperature for hugging, too!

[arseid]

I can't say they considered that when you were born, but it is something I greatly appreciate about you.

[ ... he's so proud of this, she can't help but be endeared. ]

[sharplydressed]

They should definitely care way more about those kind of things. I mean, cutting and killing is important too, but what about being cute and good to hug?

[What an incredibly Kashuu™ sentence.]

[arseid]

If they put so much effort into that, of course, then I'm sure they'd do that for all of the swords and then I'd certainly have a harder time.

[sharplydressed]

...But even if they were all cute, I'd still be the cutest, you know.

[He says it like it's a fact, but there's a HIDDEN UNSUBTLE FISH FOR A COMPLIMENT HERE.]

[arseid]

... [ Here, she's just going to hug him tighter. ]

I'm not with anyone else right now, you know.
