meet me in the woods [CLOSED]
WHO: Gladio Amicitia + Yang Cheng (E-Soul)
WHEN: Set after (this)
WHERE: Starts by the hospital, then out in the wilderness
WHAT: Learning some outdoorsy stuff
NOTES\WARNINGS: None at present, will update as needed!
[ True to his word, Gladio is waiting outside of the hospital, sat on a bench out front, hunched forward on an arm draped over his thigh, a paper map in his other hand. He's scribbling a few notes onto it in blue ink, drawing a few lines with green. He's been attempting to get a feel for the weather patterns in the various areas so he can get an idea of what to expect. There's a lot that goes into his meticulous planning, but at the sound of footsteps, he shelves it all. Something to mull over while they're walking.
Looking up, Gladio tucks the map into his back pocket and brushes off his clothes, a smile lighting up his face. ]
Hope you're ready for a hike. I prefer teaching as I go. Seeing what I'm talking about is easier than trying to get you to imagine it.
[ Gladio moves to start leading the way, but pauses. ] Gladio, [ he says, belatedly, and with a laugh. ] Don't know if I said that before, but I figure you'd want to know it.

[The corners of E-Soul's mouth twitch behind his mask.]
...Alright. I'll pick up an appropriate steel item. So... the kindling. Do you normally carry some with you? Or do you gather it?
no subject
[ Gladio can't share all his secrets after all. ]
Let me know if you run into any problems with that. Doubt you will, but the offer's there. For that, or anything else while I'm putting it out there.
[ He nods. ]
If you have the space to carry scrap paper with you, sure. But knowing how to find it out in the wild is just as good. Anything dry will work. Grass, dead leaves, bark. Anything that looks flammable. After that, it's all about keeping the fire fed.
no subject
[E-Soul pushes down his instinctive distrust at the offer. Gladio seems like a good man; it's doubtlessly earnest. That feeling is nothing more than a reflection of his own isolation.]
It sounds simple enough. Alright. What else?
