[No, Ain loves that big baby, stop it. What a fucking doofus.
Drying off will be sort of bad, but. That's kind of the price they pay. If they can both tolerate a moment of cold, Ain will dry them both with his wings, and then they can get dressed and find somewhere nearby to camp out.
Ain was right when he said he's pretty sure there's a cave nearby; it's just up the mountainside a bit, in view of the water. They've got a stolen blanket and plenty of trees and a warm spring, so it's not like they'll freeze to death. It's not ideal, but both of them have had worse.
...that, and as Ain will demonstrate after he grabs kindling, he can make magical fire. So. They'll be fine. He just has to stave off yet another round of illness for the time being, because he can feel it coming on already. The hot spring was supposed to fix him, but when he's outside of the warmth he realises that the fatigue in combination with flying through mountain air is going to kill his immune system.
All they have to do is get to town, though, that's all they need to do. Then he can task Eve with taking care of Vash while he hits the fucking floor.
Sigh.]
We'll head out when the sun rises. Or... Near it. [He tucks himself up against Vash while they get sorted.] It'll be a bit of travelling, but we'll make it just fine. You'll just have to give me some frequent breaks. You're kind of heavy.
