[She looks back his way as he approaches, offering a nod of greeting before looking back towards the opening in the ground.]

You can just call me Zoe, you know. What's up?

[She says, as though nothing she's doing is noteworthy.]

[covenantal]

[ Ah. ]

Zoe, then.

[ ... he'll just kind of. wander over here. ]

Is everything alright?

[requiemed]

I think so.

[She turns towards him again, thoughtful.]

Have you been here before? It's... weird.

[covenantal]

I was, earlier this week. ... to be honest, I find this place unsettling.

[ So "weird" is a good word. He'll glance at her. ]

Are you planning to do something?

[requiemed]

[She nods.]

I got these matches from the thing with all the rabbits yesterday. I'm wondering if we might be able to see if anyone is in there if we use them.

[covenantal]

[ Lifts his brows. ]

Is there something special about them?

[requiemed]

[She shrugs.]

I figure even if they aren't, like, super bright godly matches, I could use one of those pieces of wood as a kind of torch.

[She gestures to the wood she moved aside to get a better view.]

[covenantal]

If there is someone in there, don't we run the risk of hurting them?

[ A little concerned. He's not unwilling, but they need to think it through. ]

[requiemed]

...You think we should test them out a little ways away?

[covenantal]

It can't hurt to be safe, [ he offers reasonably. ]

[requiemed]

Fair enough.

[And as such, she straightens up and looks around.]

You got a spot in mind?

[covenantal]

[ Yu will glance around. Stepping away from the hole, he'll tap a shoe on the dirt. ]

We can dig out a quick, shallow fire pit. That should work just fine.

[requiemed]

[She nods, starting to use a boot to dig into the snow as she pockets the matches for a moment.]

Yeah, that works as well as anything.

[covenantal]

[ Yu will grab a piece of wood, helping her carve out a small spot. The frozen earth makes it tougher, but with the both of them working on it, they get there. ]

Think this is enough?

[requiemed]

[She shrugs.]

I've never made a fire pit before, but... Probably.

[She fishes the matches back out of her pocket.]

[covenantal]

Let's give this a try, then. Go for it.
