blessed are the curious, for they shall have adventures
"Don't apologise - I am just glad I found you." Finn would smile if he had the social knowhow to think it might help, but as it stands he merely follows her directions, putting away the rest of the water and continuing to mop her brow and her face with the scarf. In the end he carefully wraps it around her neck and shoulders, that she might benefit from the coolish water while he shoulders the bag and scoops her into his arms.
The process means he needs to pull away the sheet she's made for herself, and they're bathed afresh in pale light as he does so. The damp sheet means they aren't skin to skin, for the most part - unlikely anyway since Finn is still clothed, but still - and he carefully lifts her up with a strength that might surprise most who know him. Make no mistake, it's all adrenaline (and he will pay dearly for it later) but for now it does the job and then some.
"Just hold tight, okay? I have my compass with me. I can get us both back to Stormbreak, but I am afraid it won't be pretty." Nausea rarely is.
