Aaron wanders onto her property bundled up in a trench coat (not so obviously inspired by someone) Never one to do anything quietly, he scales her sandbag mountain with a whoop and a grin. Heya~
Hey der! [ She politely returns the smile while carrying three big sandbags, stacking them on the top of the pile with a tiny grunt ] Ufda! sorry 'bout that. Gotta prep fer da floods comin'. I'd make an ark if I knew how ya know?
He instantly sobers up at that. Both his brothers in music and in state has suffered greatly from floods. He even lost family at a young age to floods. Ah hear ya. He hopped off the sandbags, stuffing his hands in his pockets. Ya need help then?
Oh no, I'm just fine! But if ya wanna have some to borrow, I got plenty! [ She does a double take at the guy, he has an accent but he doesn't look too familiar ] Who are ya again?
[It's odd that the weather has become so cold so suddenly. Last week it was perfect, a teaser to Spring if you will. Now Hannah was forced to break out his winter gear...again. Why can't this weather just make up its' damn mind? He mumbles to him while returning from the forest. His trusty shotgun in one hand and a potato sack dangling in his other hand. Though he blinks at the sight of the woman a couple yards ahead of him. She wasn't out when he came pass here earlier this morning.]
[ He's trying to be a good boyfriend by carrying over a few more sandbags for her. Of course he wants to be a really helpful boyfriend so he may be overdoing it just a bit with two sandbags in each hand and three more on his back. If he looks like a sandbag Santa that's about to fall over backwards, that's because he is. ]
Ummm, s-sweetie? ... where would ya like me to set these down?
[ She sputters and runs over, grabbing off the three from Lou's back and cradling them in her arms. There's a small wobble from her legs, but she manages to carry them just fine on her own once she gains balance. ]
[she's honestly wondering if she ought to be doing the same thing at this point. hands stuffed in her pockets she approaches the other.] You need help with those sandbags?

Ayuh, I don't think I need any; don't flood as often. Though I can't wait until Spring. Winter is my favorite, but it can get depressin'.
