Cutty's mobility was being effected as the snow rapidly deepened, they must have wondered under a large snow cloud the further away they drew from the castle. He was drifting further away from the larger Hufflepuff, which had been giving him some improved traction. That was, until the heavily falling snow began.
Some of the torches had gone out. It was purely visual, but Cutty thought he started to feel colder simply by the three less lights.

Austin almost dropped his torch, turned around and went back to the castle. But the castle was NO WHERE IN SITE. They were literally in the middle of nowhere, with snow everywhere. He would rather lie down in the cold snow than to walk the rest of the way to the lake.
As he continued walking, he tried to chant to keep his flame going, but he was having a hard time saying it clearly. His teeth continued to chatter, and after a few minutes, he decided to just stop altogether. At this point, it didn't matter if the torch went out or not. It didn't matter if he lost house points for his flame dwindling. All that mattered to Austin Moore was warmth, and how he was going to get it.
Cutty was drifting away from Cris's shadow and rapidly looking for another big'un to tail behind. Meanwhile the wind was getting to him and so he took his wand to his own robes and hit it with, "
Ventus!". Spotting Botros up ahead near the newly extinguished Beverly Wayne, he made his way for them passing a firstie boy on his way over. His teeth were chattering interfering with his ability to do magic. And thinking of Somerlad's lesson, Cutty seized the opportunity to be friendly toward a firstie. "
Hey mate! You look like you could use a bit of warmth.", he said before taking his wand to the boy and casting, "
Ventus!". A hot jet of wind like that from a muggle hair-dryer came forth from the end of Cutty's wand.
Just in time too. Professor Botros had announced that they'd be heading back to the castle. Hot tea and the green fire. Hot tea and the green fire. Hot tea and the green fire. Arithmancy and then bed.
He he just say they could piggyback?
