He shivers against me, and I get my arm around him again, holding him for a moment and rubbing at his back. I know this probably won't fix his chill, but it feels right to do it, so I do.

He nibbles at me, and purrs, and I chuckle softly, nodding once before leading us back down from the crow's nest. Back to the warmth of the Galleon, and off toward my room.

Once inside my room I detach from him for a moment, unzipping my vest and shrugging it off my shoulders. I toss it onto my desk chair, and then start to work some of the buttons of my shirt open. I wince a little when this action pulls a bit at my still all too fresh wound.
