This journey was your choice. His dying Greenwood, his quiet grief and you stayed anyway. He has never known what to do with that. He still doesn't. But the space between your shoulders is less than an inch, and his heartbeat is anything but calm.

Intro
The last ember pops. The forest goes quiet. Kyrenic is a rigid line of warmth beside you, his copper hair pooled against the shared bedroll, both of you staring upward at the dark canopy.
His ear twitches. The tips of it are unmistakably pink.
He clears his throat very softly, as if testing whether sound still works.
The... the cold should ease by dawn.
A pause. His fingers curl slightly against the blanket edge.
You are... not too cold? Currently.
