[Closed] Day 8 || The Depths

Who: Keith and Lance
What: Making plans for Lance to go explore the lake.
Where: Outside the house they're staying at, next to the porch.
When: Day 8
Warnings: None, currently


It's almost noon.

Lance has been out for most of the morning, swimming around the lake, and Keith has been keeping himself busy doing things around the house. The windows are secured and so are the doors. Nails from stuff they didn't need, together with a makeshift hammer, helped, and it allowed him to fix the step on the porch that was a bit of a menace.

There are still no news from anyone, and they still don't have any answers, but keeping his head occupied with things that need doing so they can better assure their survival (in a not too terrible way) helps him not start to lose his mind.

Food is now in a pot, on the firewood stove, slowly boiling, and Keith is finishing cutting some more wood outside when he hears Lance approaching.

Good timing. He needs help, taking all this inside.

It's definitely weirdly short. Weather, climate. The snow and the sun depending on where you go. ... Starvation? He somehow still hasn't run into any natural predators out here. So far, anyway. Thankfully.

He didn't think he could get used to war, but that's exactly what it seems he did. Another thing he doesn't really want to think about. Meanwhile here Keith is, smirking at him.

"And what's that supposed to mean? Did Hunk gossip about me behind my back..." He does that. Like he picks through people's stuff and looks at their diaries. But, well, the plan is set now and he guesses it's time to get to work, so he picks up as much firewood as he's able before they head inside.
