[ It takes Claude a second to remember how to speak in an even tone. Especially after when Sylvain had opened his eyes he'd remembered too late his own reaction to being woken up (kind of) within the grasp of the fever - it'd been to press a knife to the other's throat. That wouldn't be out of place either here, he thinks faintly, given both of them have been through war. Or worse, even if all Claude can do is guess what that consists of for Sylvain.
Any worrying about that's unfounded as it turns out when Sylvain shifts, and now here he sits with a hand going through red hair and the waterskin still in the other. Water can wait for another minute, so Claude sets it down to continue looking over what he can on the other in a checklist of what to look for he'd once memorized from Marianne. Triage, but in a vastly different way than those days. ]
You seem like you're freezing. [ Another guess, since if Sylvain was overheating maybe they wouldn't be sitting (or Claude wouldn't be sitting) here like this. ] I want you to stay like you are for a bit so not yet, but later can I lie down with you to warm you up?
