“I don’t know what’s wrong, okay? I’m just… really tired.” For Banni :3c

OHOHOHOH GREAT prompt for icebrood, ty “I don’t know what’s wrong, okay? I’m just… really tired.” Banni nodded with a reassuring smile, for all appearances sympathetic. "It's probably the cold - it, well, it takes some getting used to. Here, I'll leave Moss-" they gesture with an affectionate glance to the hulking, surprisingly tame, warg - "to keep you safe while I get some firewood. We'll have you warmed up in no time. Just...rest." There's something in that smile that's...off. But this is Banni - this is the hero that felled Balthazar and Joko. If anyone can keep a pact soldier safe, it would have to be them. And as they bounce away towards the copse of trees in the distance, looking suddenly quite small and harmless, his worries fade. It's easy to drift off against the furry bulk of Moss and ignore the creeping of ice over his legs and under his skin. By the time his blood freezes, he's numb to it. When Banni returns, they're empty handed. The same comforting smile rests on their split lips as they help up Jormag's newest puppet, and an emotional warmth, if not a physical one, fills their chest as they feel their dragon's approval.
