[Nate's so focused on keeping his teeth from chattering as he sips at his coffee that he doesn't notice her enter her quarters. In fact, it isn't until she shifts the blankets, letting in just a bit more cold air that he realizes he's no longer alone.
He quirks the corner of his mouth upward in a halfhearted attempt at a smile. It's just too damn cold for his liking, and judging by the bluish tint to her lips, it must be for her too.
Wordlessly, he shifts closer to her, until there's just barely any space left between them. Not quite touching, but close enough that she should be able to feel the puffs of warm air that escape as he breathes. He doesn't inch any closer, though he'd like to pull her in for a hug. She looks like she could benefit from more than just huddling beside him underneath his makeshift blanket fort.
Instead, he offers her his mug: the coffee is black with just enough sugar to cut the bitterness.]
Looks like you could use this more than me right now.
