(back in time a little)<br/><br/><strong>"Maron.  Yes... yes, you <em>are</em> going to be all right."</strong>The blonde ranger twisted her hand around to squeeze the striking red-head's wrist in return.<strong>"Though we have some challenges ahead of us."</strong><br/><br/>Callenda looked a bit startled, then grinned at Maron's compliment.<strong>"You think so?  Maybe we should be worried about that bump after all."</strong>It felt good to joke, however feebly, as they huddled together, seeing other survivors starting to move about.  An accidental glance down at Maron's torn, translucent top revealed her quite-apparent stiffness, no doubt due to cold.  Callenda was wracking her sluggish brain for a joke that would serve to alert the redhead without being too daring, but soon there were other demands to distract her, and the blonde hurried toward the wreck, leaving Maron to gather wood.  She entirely missed the comment about Selune, and hadn't yet looked up herself.<br/><br/><br/>(back in the present)<br/><br/>The icy water, despite her brave attempts to ignore it, was starting to make her stiff, her fingers clumsy, and she knew there was real danger here if she couldn't find a way to get warm.  Her mind seemed clear enough for now, but she still realized that those with hypothermia typically thought themselves safe until it was too late.  Hopefully this awareness was a sign that it<em>wasn't</em>too late, but... was she fooling herself?<br/><br/><strong>"Can anyone still on shore get a fire started?"</strong>She called out in the general direction of the beach, and her voice was unsteady, jaw tight.  Still she was driven by the sounds from within the hull... when the dark elf started climbing purposefully, Callenda hoped this meant she had found something.  It meant leaving the water, too, which was incentive enough to send the ranger scrambling after the half-naked stranger, forcing her hands to grasp and pull, her bare feet to scrabble against the boards.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">OOC</div><div class="spoiler_body">Climb +3, if needed</div></div><br/><br/><br/>
