Plunging into ice cold water generally isn't advisable for a dragon, it drops their high body temperatures down far too sharply. Unfortunately saying 'I'd rather not be in ice water, thank you, I'm a dragon' would rather give things away. In the spirit of keeping things quiet, then, he's given up his things despite his inclination otherwise and let it all happen.
Still: his white linen shirt is damp, his curls are weighted down with cold water and he looks both cold and miserable. He's doing his level best not to shiver, but the slight quake is visible nonetheless. ]
I'm hoping the households have bathing facilities.
[ You know, to warm up with a nice hot bath. He's an intellectual, you see. He likes to be clean and warm and comfortable. ]
