wtb more muse pls, sorry for the slight powerplay

Glancing to see that the woman had found the living room, the redhead went outside to find the firewood pile that had been cut by someone more fit than he. Taking a rather decent armful of logs, Strel nudged his way back into the door, having jammed it a little bit with small stone wedge. By the time he had returned, the tinder was already burning and the woman had left him to make the embers flame up and roar. He knelt by it, feeding the logs in a piece at a time with a thunk as one landed on top of the others and stifled the fire for a moment. Strel looked over his shoulder, hoping to confirm that he was indeed going to offer Susquehanna a drink, before he promptly turned back to focus on the fireplace. The woman was feeding her child and he wanted to give her some privacy. "Sure, as soon as I got the fire goin'." The poker jabbed at a log, sending up light sparks into the chimney. The way he interacted with the logs was almost as though it were a moment of being dishabille.


Turning around after he heard Hanna shift, making the seat she had chosen creak, the redhead watched her choose the bed the as a place for her daughter to rest. Rising, the Miracles male got the bottle of alcohol, though he set it back down. He exited the room and went into the kitchen, taking two cups. One was a mug and the other was more of a tall glass, not really containers for alcoholic beverages. It would have to do. As Strel returned to the room, the woman moved to the wall near the fireplace, and the redhead sat himself down on the stones before the blazing fire. The booze was opened and he distributed a small amount between the mug and the glass. He picked up the glass and let it clink next to Hanna. "There you are, hope the cups will do."


Taking a sip, Strel scrunched his face from the alcohol, though he recovered with a soft sigh and a head shake. "So you said you were heading somewhere in the lands, yes?" he inquired, wondering if she were heading to Halifax, but why would she pass through a territory to do so? It was a risky move, so surely she was coming to see someone in the territory. But who? "You were going to meet someone?" he asked, innocently, wondering curiously what she was doing in Miracles.
