The purred comment earned him a slightly nervous sideways look from Bucky. For a moment it looked like he was worried Len would try something with him, but his words showed differently a moment later. "That, uh, friend of yours isn't going to take exception to me getting too close, is he? 'Cause he was growling every time I got near you, and he strikes me as the type I really don't want to piss off."

He slid down into the hollow. There was just about enough room for the two of them if they didn't mind getting close, which was just as well since they had to anyway. Hopefully, it would warm up quickly with body heat, or they'd both be missing some fingers and toes by the time they were found.

Groaning, he settled himself on his knees, packing the branches against the sides and bottom. The dirt was just loose enough that he could press them in, not so much he was worried about it collapsing on them.
