Ivan just followed until now, going where Timo went or nudged him, standing when Timo left to find the stool and finally sitting down on it, trying to unwrap his scarf and, after some feeling has started to return to his fingers, to take off the drenched coat. It's a lot of fumbling, because it is harder when everything is wet and heavy and also his fingers are still feeling a bit numb. And tingle on the insides at the same time.

"I wanting milk." His grammar is completely off, though the tone is surprisingly spot-on for someone with such little grasp of grammar and vocabulary. He has a lot of listening practice, but nobody ever really bothered to teach him any Finnish. "And soup." It's the two things that Timo mentioned - he'd go with any food at all at this point but soup is warm, and milk is probably warm too. Maybe there will even be a little honey in it. What was the word for honey?

His eyes are on the older noble as he speaks, trying to assess his reaction to what he just said - sure, he never really speaks Finnish and has been told that he shouldn't, but this person that is apparently his father spoke it all the time just now so it seems to be what he expects? Ivan hates situations that he cannot judge properly almost as much as situations where he gets hurt.
