To be technical, Clint wasn't even the ship's doctor. He just knew a lot about bioalchemy and how to use it. After studying the body for a few years, yes, some might feel comfortable referring to him when they were sick. However, sickness and broken bones were different. Bioalchemy dealt with the physical aspect of the body, as well as the energies being spread. There were other practices which focused even on viruses, illnesses and chronic pains. But that was another matter entirely.
He wasn't about to tell Tessa that.
"We have to get out of here first." Clint reminded her. His eyes trailed down to the lacy bit, barely hanging on to her waist with how tiny it was. It was a bad decision to look down, he only reddened, and his pants felt a little tighter than usual.
Clint pulled the pants away from her, setting them against the wall so they'd dry faster if it was possible. She was effectively naked, and he felt bad for having taken the first step. If she wasn't comfortable with this, she'd never be able to look him in the eye. So, he moved with deliberate slowness, never once trailing his hands near her chest or her thighs without doing so carefully.
A change in position was called for. With her alchemy heating the wall, it was best she be near it instead of using Clint alone. So, he picked her up in his arms, rolling on his feet until he was away from the wall and she was against it. He made sure to lean her away from himself, so she wouldn't show anything unnecessary. When he noticed the rock extending beneath them he thanked his lucky stares. The snow began to melt, he brushed more of it away, to reveal a gray slab beneath them. It was far better than lying in the snow.
Grown ass man, remember? Get a grip.
Clint, with his back turned to Tessa, pulled his pants away from his body put placed them on the ground where he'd lay. He at least had to try to use his clothes for warmth. This was truly the worst, but he would get through it, would Tessa? She was exposed, stuck between a rock and Clint. All because he'd lost his locket.
"Come here." He sighed, chuckling at the situation. There was no other way to respond.
Clint laid behind her, wrapped his arms around her waist and settled her head in his chest. When he was sure he had her in his arms, he wrapped his legs around hers, pressing even his toes to hers. It was a good thing he was so tall, and she of only an average height. Otherwise, his awkward embrace wouldn't have worked.
"Don't sleep yet, not until you're warm."
