@smuggld spoke: 🧤
things maureen’s apparently FORGOTTEN about living on a planet: weather and seasons are things. in her defense, she’d also lived in california for years before leaving for alpha centauri, but she also had grown up in the midwest so... really, she has no excuse. her arms are crossed tight across her chest as she and don are making THE LONG TREK back from the solidarity. another thing to remember: don’t walk places when you’re going to be coming back at night. she’s just about to see what she can use for a makeshift heat pack when she feels cloth drape around her shoulders. blinking once then twice, she turns to look at don, STARING at his coat and then back at him. it’s such a gentle, chivalrous gesture, it catches her off guard. ❝ thanks, ❞ she murmurs, the smile on her face warm and genuine. ❝ are you sure ? aren’t YOU going to get cold ? ❞
