His grin widens as he replies with an easy {You're welcome!}, glad to see the SCA didn't pipe it up and disturb everyone around. It takes him a moment to find a spot that seems palatable enough to sleep at, seeing as they are all doing the best they can. The stone and grit underneath them isn't the most comfortable of beds, but they'll make do; as do all who struggle to survive here.

He finds a corner for them both just some ways away, far enough that a quiet conversation shouldn't disturb any other, if they keep it to hushed tones. He waves Romeo over, settling down as best he can at the junction of two walls, and he spreads out the thin blanket so that Romeo can come curl up against his side, where he can share his warmth. There are some perks to his parentage after all.

"Y're really good at takin' care of others," Esteban encourages his young friend, a half-question somewhere beneath his words. He lets the sentence linger for a beat, before adding "but y' should be careful with y'rself too, you know?" He can see Romeo's drooping eyes and yawns after all. He's getting pretty worried about him.
