"I doubt they've had worse." Hey, sarcasm is a default setting.

Nagi intensely dislikes sitting in the cold snow, but he's not entirely sure about his legs being able to support him if he tries to stand up. He's really past worrying about being embarrassed, but staying like this probably won't help him build up the energy to move.
