[Vash takes the shovel without protest. He'll make it last as long as he needs to. And if he winds up having to dig the rest of it up with his bare hands, at least has four of them to do the damn job. He owes this much to Adrian after everything he's been through.]

I get it.

[Like Adrian, he doesn't anticipate this lasting. Good things never do. So he doesn't waste time with words. He takes the shovel and trudges down. He'll make it as quick as he can, without taking away their dignity.

It's a bit harder than digging in sand, he'll admit. But he got his practice before. Besides, his palms have long been worn over with calluses. He's used to harder labor. Sure, the mud makes it a slicker process, and he winds up caked in it, but eventually he has a hole. Maybe it isn't quite six feet deep but... it'll do.

They only have so much time.]
