Jake can't help the humorless laugh that leaves his lips, almost chocking on his tea as he looks down at Connor.
"Welcome to the fucking club," He shakes his head, stopping to down the majority of the tea to keep from having to taste it before setting aside the cup. "I've been here...well..okay me, Dwight, Meg, and Claud have all been here the longest. No idea how long but it's been a long time."
Looking over at the others he nods to a few. "We all help each other, teach eachother what we know and it gives us an edge. Of course they can do that too, and they do. Remember how that gen we were working on sparked when neither of us were touching it? That's a hex, if you ever find one of those piles of bones that's glowing....get rid of it."
"If it glows it go!" Ace called around his cigarette with a laugh.
"Sometimes it might be something bad that triggers when it goes but....it's still better to be safe than sorry later. Plus there's one hex that can really fuck us over if there are any unlit totems left around."
Shifting a bit to put his hands out close to the flames he Jake relaxed a bit.
"Point is we do what we can to make this place comfortable, who knows how long we'll be here for."
