Overboard? Please. This is nothing compared to what the two of us used to get up to.

[ That's mostly true in the sense that he and Hilda had some grand plans back in the day, but it's really for demonstration considering now Sylvain's seen what they can get up to. Or some of it; there's still room for more and this could've gone further. It might yet again on another day.

For today, however, it worked to make sure Sylvain couldn't flee from these truths: that he's cared for, that what was said was honesty with every word meant for how they feel, and that no matter what responses he might have it won't change how they feel.

Claude has a feeling repetition will be the key there. Today it's enough to squeeze Hilda's hand with a smile when familiar fingers slip between his and he follows them both while looking at the veritable wall of ice he'd created. ]

Here I thought you'd appreciate this tea iced what with all that talk of it being too hot in Cadens just about all the time. [ He leans over purely for nudging Sylvain in the side with his elbow before flashing a wink to Hilda. ] But now seems like as good of a time as any to mention we'll need your flashy fire skills to get back into the loft, so time to dazzle us once more in yet another way. You know, for our benefit.

[ Sorry, Sylvain! At least tea awaits inside. ]

[ Sylvain just shoots them both a Very Unimpressed Look before rolling his eyes heavenward again and turning to start for the currently-frozen set of doors. ]

I think your tactical skills are slipping, Claude. Especially since I’m the only one with fire spells to get you back inside. So I’m the one person on this roof your ice wouldn’t have actually trapped.

[ Still, there’s wry amusement lurking underneath his tone as he calls on his fire to start melting the impromptu barricade. Which he’s pretty sure wouldn’t have lasted long in the desert anyway ]

I’m learning a levitation spell next so I can just leave you two stuck here if you try this again.

[ No he’s not. But it’s fun to threaten them with it anyway. ]
