Why, it sounds as though you are the one inviting me, as a matter of fact.

[ Or summoning him? Honestly, he can never be too sure when it comes to Edelgard. ]

I would welcome a short walk, however. I imagine the weather has warmed up enough for you by now?

[ It's apparently something like springtime now, but he remembers how even spring nights in Fhirdiad would be too chilly for Edelgard as a child. ]

[crestsidestory]

It does sound that way, doesn't it.

I will have a cardigan in case the night still holds a chill, but I expect it to be pleasant enough.

[ His mild concern is cute, though. ]

Fortunately by now you are an expert at keeping people [ Her. ] warm so I think I have nothing to worry about.

[madjesty]

[ Though she can't see it, that earns a huff of laughter from him, anyway. ]

Ah, I see. So you invite me as a precautionary measure. I should have known you would have ulterior motives.

[ It's a tricky job, to convey tone through words alone, but he should hope she realizes he only means this in jest. ]

Just keep in mind that, as man from Faerghus, I might resort to methods you may deem unorthodox.

[ Some of which she might recall from their time snowed-in together. (Or: maybe he has ulterior motives of his own.) ]

[crestsidestory]

[ Oh, now they really are teasing, aren't they? She lets out a small laugh. ]

I am merely aware of the potential benefits of your company.

[ Especially on a cool night. ]

Have you been to the botanical garden? We can meet there and then discuss these unorthodox methods of yours.

[madjesty]

Hmm. That does sound mightily convenient to you.

[ They are most definitely teasing now! Who would have thought... ]

I have never visited the botanical garden, myself, but I do know of its location. Shall we meet there in half an hour?

[crestsidestory]

I think you would find my body heat just as convenient if you were in need.

[ Maybe it would not be as large and encompassing as his own, but still! ]

I'll see you there, Dimitri.

[madjesty]

Well, I suppose even a man from Faerghus is not immune to the cold.

[ Considerably more resistant to it than Edelgard, though he's not going to point that out. ]

I will see you soon, El.
