[Staring at her bonfire.

Wait. Why does she even have a bonfire?]

...Isn't that d-dangerous?

[followyouthere]

...Probably!

[bbsatbyrobots]

Aren't you worried?

[followyouthere]

Not really.

[Jerks her thumb at a couple of buckets near her, one of water, the other of dirt. Just in case.]

And if it gets out of control, I'm a pretty fast runner, so. [smirk]

[bbsatbyrobots]

Well, at least you have a plan...[She stares at one of the buckets curiously.]

What...what would dirt do to help?

[followyouthere]

Smother the embers? I mean, it was easier to lug out here than water since it's all around, so.

[bbsatbyrobots]

But...wouldn't it just burn?

[followyouthere]

Well, by covering it, you're smothering it and burying some of its fuel source, right? Getting rid of the oxygen. I mean, that's how I've always thought of it.

[bbsatbyrobots]

That...makes some sense, I suppose. [She's still confused, but you know.]

[followyouthere]

...Right.

Well anyway. I'm being careful.

[bbsatbyrobots]

[She smiles.] And that's the i-important thing.
