[Byleth couldn't help but lean into the warmth that Dimitri's body offered, absolutely shameless in tucking in as close he could and wrapping his part of the cloak tight around himself. It was still warm from Dimitri's lingering body heat, and his old student's body offered even more of it.
He felt oddly small, but not in an unpleasant way. Dimitri had always been taller and broader than him, but it wasn't something Byleth had really noticed outside of absent observation before. This close, Byleth was incredibly aware of how much bigger Dimitri was, and it was a peculiar feeling... after some internal consideration, he decided the feeling, odd as it was, was positive.
He liked this position, he decided. Dimitri had always been a source of comfort for him, ever since the war had ended, so it stood to reason that he would find an intimate position like this pleasant. He wondered if this was something they could do again later, without the threat of death-by-blizzard hanging over their head, of course.]
This is enough. You're very warm, Dimitri.
[It made the otherwise biting chill tolerable. His face was still exposed to the cold, though, and he dipped his head slightly, burying his nose into the cloak's fur and turned his body a little more towards Dimitri's, practically curling up against him. Cosy.]
I hope our prolonged absence doesn't cause problems for the others. They must be worried...
[It wasn't as if his and Dimitri's walks were a secret from the others, after all. He just hoped Dedue wouldn't decide to launch a one-man rescue mission into the blizzard if it carried on until morning...]
