And a bit is all he needs. Somehow that heat starts ebbing away when Dimitri sets to taking his bath, and Felix finds his grip a lot more stable as time wears on. Distracting as the sheets are, he manages to swallow down the broth, finishing most of it by the time Dimitri emerges from the bath.]
I'm feeling better now. I'll get back to my room.
[Where he can, perhaps, take care of the heat that still lingers.]
