[While he may be doing this in clothing that's far less...egregious than usual (the full uniform is a bit much for a gathering this casual), it's questionable how much eyecandy he's providing; that said, if you've ever wanted to watch someone split wood with a large JRPG sword then this is where you want to be. Can swords actually fell full-bodied trees, absolutely not; can they actually split wood? ...Well, that depends on how much force you're willing to put behind one, and judging from last night he's got a lot to work out. That said, while he's looking pretty severe in doing it, he's seeming...fairly okay? Like he's infinitely more content to take this out on something that won't care if he destroys it, anyway. Once in a while he'll wander off from the bonfire itself to break down some more wood down for the sake of keeping the blaze going.
Otherwise, he's...here, though it seems that he hasn't really gotten that much more outgoing at parties; he's near enough to the fire to keep warm, but he seems rather content to stay by the edges rather than with the group proper. While he seems fairly quiet compared to, say, the party at the bar a couple of weeks ago, that doesn't mean he's entirely opposed to company; he wouldn't be here if he was, honestly.]
It's a good day for all of this; I think it's safe to say several of us have needed it.
[That aside, he leaves once as evening falls, tending to the votives in the church; he isn't gone for too long, in the scheme of things, but it helps to keep his head clear.]
