Dain meets Tuo's gaze with a quiet shake of his head. Later. Ideally, not without Vervain's informed consent, though the likelihood of that is probably very low. Really -- is it possible not to know? Not that Dain needs further motivation, but how is it fair to condemn others for traits they're not even aware of?

"Thank you again," he says out loud with a smile in his voice, "for your help, both last night and this morning. I hope I don't need to make a habit of bringing you last-minute additions on the verge of freezing." Is that pointed? Maybe a little, though Dain looks as innocent as the driven snow.
