[ The nearest scorpion gets nudged with the toe of his boot, just as a cautious check to make sure it's really dead. It is considering the fire damaged this one rather well and its shell crumbles a bit, which convinces Claude to stop poking at them to ensure there's enough for them to return.
What's less a suggestion than a not so thinly veiled command, however, earns Sylvain a flat look in return for the scolding one he gets himself. Even if he takes no actual offense to either, of course he won't comply right away with other things to be done. ]
I said I was the knight here, not a damsel in distress. I'd rather organize these guys first and then we can take a break. Better to do it now before it warms up any further.
[ Whether the temperature will actually rise today or not, Claude's more than willing to play upon any Faerghan distress over weather not suited for a tundra as motivation. Besides, there's a tree nearby - even if it's a sad and sparse one - they can sit under in a bit, so with that in mind? Time to retrieve his gloves to put them on to avoid touching any scorpion stingers accidentally while piling them up. ]
