5 ~ dirty deeds, done dirt cheap

[have_a_job_too]

[It's dark and the camera opens on an eerie night-vision view of Arkady... standing. Just standing. In the woods. Covered in dirt. You can hear in the background that she may not be alone. She looks around and after a long moment she reaches out a hand and a chunk of dirt and rock erupts from the ground. As detritus falls around and on top of her

[She pauses and looks around again. Finding the device, she crawls out of the hole and pulls it close.]

Don't know.

You don't know? Then why are you digging around?

[have_a_job_too]

Because I have to dig it out.

[ Hi, fellow slug buddy. Tyr stands a short distance way, digging at another part of the mountain. ]

Don't be foolish. It has to be here.

[have_a_job_too]

It didn't move did it?

[Another mound of dirt flies up, sending dust and rocks everywhere.]

[stargathering]

If it could move, we wouldn't need to dig it out and find it like this...

[ It comes with digging. Tyr just shoves it all aside rather than tossing the mounds of dirt. ]

[She's frowning. They're going to be out here forever.]

If my friends were here, we'd just link up and move the entire mountain.

[srslynotguy]

We'll just have to keep digging.

[ Hi too :D ♥ ]

[have_a_job_too]

[Have a pile of dirt shoved in your direction.]

Oops, sorry. Do you think it's deeper?

[worksmart]

[Somebody's arriving late, with a spade.]

Erosion. It's heavier than the soil it's buried in.

[And hefting the spade into the soil.]

We're not deep enough yet.

[She pushes another mound of dirt with her powers.]

Are we sure this is the right place?

[worksmart]

Seem to be. [There's a slight jealous look at how easy she has this.] Not like there's much of a range to pick from.

[have_a_job_too]

No, but... are we sure this is the right side?

[She shifts a little on her feet before digging again.]

[horrible_penny]

That was... neat.

What isn't there?

[have_a_job_too]

...

I don't know.

[horrible_penny]

Arkady, I'm kind of worried about you. Do you feel okay?

[have_a_job_too]

I feel fine. I'm just a little tired from the digging.
