He chewed the inside of his lip nervously, trying to look around without looking directly at her again. He had no training for this. There was no way for an Avox to direct a citizen, no protocol. He had to go back to older patterns, half-remembered and dangerous.

Nervous, pale, he gestured with slightly unsteady hands to the next tree. With two of them, they could re-dig the holes and right the rest of them?

Of course, Martha knew none of this. Just that she wanted to help. Wanted him to be less nervous. She followed his gesture and nodded.

"Looks good," she said warmly. "This will definitely go faster with two people, right?"

And maybe, at some point, she could figure out what had happened up here. And what had happened to him.

He sank to his knees by the torn-up roots, using his hands to dig out the soil beneath them. Each tree needed a substantial hole. A few scoops, and he glanced up at her. Was this what she wanted to help with?

[notsecondbest]

She dropped to her knees beside him, without a moment's hesitation, smiling over at him briefly before leaning over to scoop out the dirt with him. Simple enough, right? Dig a hole, plant a tree. She'd be sore by the end of it, but it was something to do, and Martha liked feeling useful.

His shoulders eased slightly as she worked beside him, as nothing bad happened from allowing a citizen to help him, and he caught himself stealing glances. When the hole looked deep enough, he even dared to touch her hand to stop her.
