[ Claude's only response to that at first is a groan like he's forever collapsed onto the ice and destined to stay there. Clearly getting up is going to be an impossible task, even as he lifts his gloved hands to tentatively tap around on his body like he's expecting something to be missing.
It isn't, of course, especially since he can feel there's nothing wounded here but maybe a little bit of his pride. But none of that will stop him from putting on (and it is put on) the most pitiful look he can muster as he gazes up at Hilda, possibly borrowing a page out of her book from back when Teach used to insist it was training time. ]
I should've put on at least five more coats. Note to self for me for next time.
[ Or if they ever do this somewhere outside of the Horizon, anyway; there's probably a few sweaters he could dig out of the back of his closet to wear beneath his coat, and that's a note he's absolutely making.
The lamenting only lasts so long since Claude tilts his head back slightly to get a better look at Hilda, or rather to admire her and without making any secret of it. A couple more seconds of that will go by before he reaches out for her hands - assuming that's part of whatever she has in mind. ]
At this point I'm not thinking there's much of a difference between the options when it comes to how I'll do them in reality. Pick one and we'll go with it.

[ The nap's important, sure, and so is refuting Hilda's belief about stress and responsibility, but more than that - ]
Alright, I'm not seeing things, am I? What's the drawing you keep sending?
[ That she's sent a grand total of twice, but. That's enough to bring back the earlier curiosity. ]

[ Here's a sigh which can probably be felt in Cadens all the way from Aquila. ]
I dunno, Hilda. Looks kind of like a person if I squint at it? Like when you used to doodle on notes when we absolutely weren't passing them back and forth in class because we were perfect students.

He proposed during the winter festivities in Thorne's port. It was very romantic, though neither of us had any idea of just how fitting of a scene it would be for such a thing. And I am... I'd long given up hope of being able to choose who I would marry. That either of us can ask, and find the other willing, is a gift in and of itself.
Thank you, Hilda. I will be sure to give Clive your regards as well.
[ He's used to this kind of teasing, he has the reverse card on stand-by. ]
I'll bring you all the treats if you'll be in Nocwich this weekend.
It's for a bicycle. I'm having one made for the some of the Summoned who work as couriers.

What? We can't have a secret, text only tryst? Oh well, I guess our love can never be.
I can't imagine him being shy about anything. But alright, I will.
[ 'From a friend' might still not be accurate, but he lets it slide. Truthfully, he's concerned about any extra attention the Free Cities puts on Viktor. ]
No, not more common than carriages yet. They're very common in other worlds, though. For travel and exercise.

That's because there's only one talented artist here, and it's certainly not me. But wait, what are the other ones? You can't just mention there's more and not share them!
