[ Amos doesn't usually go to the Tree when he's still alive. He'll wake up there after having died, as everyone does; take a few minutes to regain his bearings; then stumble home as though hungover.

But there's been a recent development in his life, and he's feeling contemplative, so... the Tree it is. It's a nice little spot, he figures. Quiet, and peaceful, and if he's going to go out then maybe he should come out here more often—

The ground is moving.

Is that a hand? ]


Fuck.

[ It's the hissed mutter of someone being taken by surprise, because he didn't know anyone was going to be here. In the ground. Did someone die recently, is that what this is, or what...

A beat, as Amos very helpfully stares at ground shifting below him and what is probably the beginnings of someone beginning to claw their way out. ]


Hey, you need a hand?

[ And then he's dropping down to his own knees and starting to attempt actually helping, maybe-probably answering his own question as he begins to dig from above. He knows he'd appreciate the assist — and also whoever this is is probably going to be too weak to attack him, so, there's no real risk here at all. ]
