It's obviously not uncommon to find Felix out in the yard, training. It's also not uncommon to find him wielding one half of his Doublade against the other half in a duel, as he is now. It's a little less common to find him doing that while also pitting himself against his Bisharp and his Scizor at the same time, which he's also doing now.

What's definitely not at all common about this state of affairs is that it's happening after midnight.

Felix rarely has trouble sleeping, even when he's troubled; in fact, he tends to sleep more when he's troubled. He especially doesn't have trouble sleeping when Sylvain's around. The problem is, he never tried to sleep in the first place; he's been out here for hours.

Most people probably wouldn't be able to tell that Felix has been pushing himself too hard, but to Dimitri, it's obvious - his breath comes a little too heavily, his movements somewhat slowed by fatigue, his stance a little sloppier than usual. He doesn't notice Dimitri's presence, too absorbed in the fight.

Really, the fact that Felix is training at midnight would be enough of a concern - even without his many foes, even without how much of a mess he clearly is. Dimitri was just slipping out for his own business, but... Seeing this, he quietly turns back into the house.

When he comes back again, it's with one of his wooden lances in hand. "Felix," he says quietly, not raising his voice much.

It's Pwyll who hears - and spots - Dimitri first, and he alerts Felix with a brief motion. Felix turns, pushing sweaty hair out of his face with the back of his free hand as he catches his breath; his face is flushed with exertion, and his eyes are angry, but not with anyone present.

"...Dimitri. What are you doing awake?"

So he didn't even hear him... He really is upset. Otherwise, that's not like Felix at all. "I just woke up," he answers simply, and decides to leave it at that. It's otherwise unimportant to talk much about why he's up and about.

Instead, he merely raises his lance.

"Spar with me. Your Pokemon could likely use a rest." Or maybe they don't. That too is unimportant.

What he needs to do is simply be there with Felix. Draw his words out like his blows.
