[Ohman, he couldn't have gotten a better text. This all still sucks, but for a moment it sucks a whole lot less because at least Sam's out; she isn't in this horrible situation anymore, and he doesn't have to worry if she's going to be found.
He's so relieved that it takes a moment to return her message, his fingers shaking a little and making it hard to type, but for a good reason this time.]
I'll be better once you're out and we can all put this way, way behind us
[ at least until the next time fear decides to torture them for fun, but right now they just have to take things one day at a time. she doesn't like that chris is still buried, of course she doesn't, but now she can actually help do something about it. ]
Just need a quick refuel and then I'll get digging
Take enough time to rest, Sam. I'm not going anywhere.
[Haha, morbid humor. But seriously as much as he would really like to be rescued he doesn't know what condition Sam might be in and surely jumping into digging too quickly might be bad for her.]
[ although time is literally of the essence, sam isn't so reckless as say... mike might be in this sort of situation. going around trying to dig five feet into the ground in her current state wouldn't be a help to anyone. so despite wanting to do the opposite, dealing with the dehydration will have to come first.
she's not happy about it. ]
Like I said, plenty of time for that when you're above ground. If this stupid cave even counts as above ground
[Not that he doubts it; Ashley can be very determined when she sets her mind to something. He's been talking to her off and on and has rewatched the little video she sent to him several times at this point, but hearing the update still definitely makes him feel a little better even if he doesn't say so.]
Has she whacked Josh with a shovel yet?
[Chris told her she'd get bonus points if she made it through searching for him and Sam without inflicting any shovel-related injuries on Josh.]

Date: 2016-01-29 01:13 am (UTC)[The situation is clearly dire. Which it actually really is, making everything less funny, but he's trying.]
YES
Date: 2016-01-31 04:26 am (UTC)Ash is really kicking butt trying to find you
[ she adds because 1) it's true and 2) she thinks it might stir up some hope in him. ]
