divineimpulse | DIMITRI CATCHALL

[byleth's quick enough to catch up with Dimitri, even with the head-start—luckily, there's just not that many places for him to go, even with all the space, regardless of how he's feeling. even forest vegetation can't save him—it's too widely spaced, and he's just too easily spotted, even as damp and muted color-palette-wise as he is.

she stops just a short distance from him, and begins pulling a large bathtowel out of her bag.]

Here. [she holds it out to him with both hands.]

[ at some point she receives a blurry picture of half his thumb and a very quick-moving, furry blur. ]

Are you safe?

[hup

well it took a little doing after lalli directed her, but

here's sensei

on the (sighs) on the roof

and there's the swamp thing.]

Dimitri.

[she's announcing her presence, but her voice is still fairly soft.]

[ It's less that he checks in on her specifically, and more that he actually stops when he sees her outside training. It takes another moment, but he does stop his restless ghosting about to glide over to her. ]

What are you doing?

[ he's still not really at the point of pleasantries, but he does actually chime in to message her, which might? be improvement? who's to say. ]

Did you receive more of these 'vouchers?'

[very late wednesday night, after everything from the minievent has more or less calmed down, and people have all gone their separate ways, byleth makes her way to dimitri's secret sleep hole, or whatever.

at this point, he's pretty well set up, but she's still bringing a replacement blanket.

before getting too close, she announces herself.]

Dimitri?

...It's me.

Are you safe?

Still up for sparring?

Are you safe?

Professor, a question.

[and she drags him to the health office, otome's first aid kit around her good shoulder, and nobody is here because they've all gone to have their own pcs.

apparently she's had enough of words today, because she just points at the nearest cot once they're inside with an expression that brooks no argument.]

Professor, there's something I need to speak with you about. Preferably in person.

[and, later in the day, when she catches up with dimitri post claude-feather-handoff.]

Did he take it?

Are you safe?

[ after all that drama and their sad little meeting... dimitri is still outside, out in the snowy treeline somewhere.

after all of it, he is... very drained. his shoulders sag a bit, the dark circles under his eyes even more obvious against his skin. but his voice is mild, whether with exhaustion or just finding some sort of calmness in the moment. ]

...Professor, may I talk to you about something?

Dimitri, you should know that Sakyou may contact you soon.

I was posing as the holder of the safety voting ability for him, for protection. In light of my outing as one of the murderers, you'll be speaking with him about it from now on.

[hello dimitri. just about one of the only people she will willingly drop in on this week, and she catches him hanging around the mysterious rock wall.

her emotions are perfectly open with him: an ongoing backbeat of care, a frisson of happiness to see him.]

Have you done a task, yet?

[because it's fears. This Shit Again!]

[ once all the raucousness of reunions and reveals passes, dimitri will just be inside with a to-go cup of tea, disassociating a little. long day. at his side is a gray cat, who is just lazily flicking his tail and vibing with him.

he's probably zoned out enough that he doesn't notice anyone coming, for once. ]

[ with the campus as unstable as it's been, he's staying pretty close to winter dorm today, though he'll of course invite byleth inside when they inevitably meet up.

and... he has a to-go cup of tea for her! sorry there's no choices here, it's chamomile. ]

...I'm ready to leave, but I will admit I'll miss this place a bit.
