“Hopefully,” she muttered. “I already told him I’m angry… not sure if he’ll remember, though… I guess hopefully not.”

"Hypothermia does strange things to the mind," Gaius mused. "Perhaps...He'll remember some. Bits and pieces, but not all."
(I started working on my end of semester worldbuilding project today and accidentally created a better version of Waterworld (1995).)

(Haha nice!! Props to you for getting a headstart. I’d fully start it like three days before it was due haha)
She nodded. “That makes sense… I don’t remember most of last night and I only was without my coat an hour. Gods only know how long he’d been without his.”

(I've been itching for a worldbuilding project for awhile now. I should probably be working on my novel, but the idea hit me and I got excited.)
"Two hours, including the ride back," Gaius replied promptly. "He took it off quickly."

Gods and Gaius, she guessed. Though he’d probably claim that was one and the same. She cringed and nodded. “Ah.”

Gaius was silent for a few moments, staring into the distance.

“So more like an hour,” she concluded. “… and I would have been less than an hour, since Rönn… it was a slower walk out than back… I think… not sure. I kinda stopped remembering what happened sometime between when you left and I woke up this morning.”

"You made it inside on your own," Gaius said. "But Rönn carried you back. You were delirious and in the early stages of hypothermia."

“…How did you know we’d left?” Was he spying on them?

"We started to wonder where you'd both gone," he replied. "It'd been too long without any notification of lateness or skipping from a servant, so I checked on you."
