Since they are superstars, they can get it on on the first try -- with a bit of work! ;D And for my next post, we can go through the rest of the dye process. Also, re:time, no worries~
Once Claudius gave the command, Liliana lifted with him. His fingers slipped as he tried to haul the heavy tub onto the metal grates and he had to let his arms go slack for a moment to regain his balance. Once he was completely ready, he bent his knees and his arms to push it up and on to the metal. He shouted a few times to Liliana, letting her know when his arms got tired and how high to lift it. After a few minutes of struggling and retries, they managed to get it on the grate.
"Ugh," he said and flopped onto the tub. He rested his head on the edge and let his arms dangle over the sides. He stayed like that for a few seconds, before he straightened up and gave his partner a weary, but happy smile. "N-now we n-need some more snow. B-but we c-can start the f-f-f-fire. Do you.. want to do... that? I can... k-keep collecting snow." He could tell that there wouldn't be quite enough snow since it would shrink as it melted, but if they started the fire now, it would speed things up, especially now that they had everything in order. He was just glad he had such a helpful partner!
