[ erwin is also reluctant to be shooed away, to be fair, though he does acquiesce because arguing in the worsening rain sounds like a lot more effort than necessary when the stakes are as low as "erwin helps get the blanket back to the tent."
it's weird to be able to actually pick his battles, but he does like it, even if he rolls his eyes fondly as he heads into the tent, tucking his shoes in the corner as well in the space that will soon be designated Dirty Things Area, which, fair enough.
by the time levi gets back and moves to the 'fiddling with things' stage, erwin's settled in and sitting—he seems thoughtful, like he's working through a problem and moving toward a solution. except it's not a 'problem,' it's the current situation and making everyone (all two of them) involved as relaxed and comfortable as possible.
eventually, he braces his weight on the prosthetic hand, leans over toward levi, and catches his chin gently with the other to steal that previously-interrupted-by-rain kiss. ]
I think, between the two of us, we can figure something out. We've always worked well together.
[ it's unclear if he thinks he's being some kind of smooth operator or if he's just genuinely as earnest as this about it. ]
