Ahhh, nothing like a nice outdoorsy class right in the smack dab middle of the day in summer to really catch the most of the heat and humidity that the eastern seaboard had to offer! But, of course, Gladio was living for it, and he was ready to meet the class at the edge of the preserve. His usual grin might have been a little more reserved out of deference for anyone who may have decided to come to class despite discovering why too much alcohol was full of regrets the next morning (not to name any names or anything, though, of course), and he gestured at all the stuff he had at his feet today.

"Before we head up to the campsite today," he announced, "we're going to be taking a moment to talk about camp first aid and putting together first aid kits to bring with us. Even if you're just taking a nice casual little camping trip out for a night or a weekend, anything can happen out there, so you've got to be prepared. We'll also talk about some of the more common injuries you might encounter and what to do about them, and once we're all kitted up and ready, we'll head on out."

Nell blushed a little. "You're awful sweet."

She nudged him back. "I didn't mind the being really snuggly part or you being my hero and carrying me home. I wasn't as fond of feeling like I wasn't really in control of myself."

"Yeah." Gladio's expression went sympathetic again, his head bobbing a little in an understanding nod as he took a drink of his own water. "I get that. That's the whole reason I never really drink much. The idea of not having control over myself..."

He shook his head now, trying not to think too much on times when he hadn't been so great at keeping his anger in check...sighing a little, and sending over another faint smile.

"I can at least go a few deep before I even start to feel anything, though," he noted, "at my size, though."

"Clearly I should stick to a small glass of wine once in a while," Nell said with a smile. "No matter how tempting the drink may be. I can always have a non-alcoholic one."

"And if you do change your mind," Gladio grinned back, "you know I'll be there to carry you home and we can just go take another walk in the woods the next day. Good to go."

Her heart was so full and he made her so happy that all she could do was turn and wrap her arms around him. "I know you will," she whispered into his chest. "One of the many reasons I love you so."
