At the sound of partial laughter, Caelus looks up from where he was staring at his feet (making sure he doesn't trip over air, ya know?). The fact that Aventurine can identify his device isn't all too surprising, the blond was high up in the I.P.C., and this was one of the companies creations. But he is a tad impressed that the lad can tell what version Findie was. He thinks Findie told Caelus himself way back when, but the other gets it with just a few glances.. Really, impressive.

❛ Well, yeah- it is. Though, it'd prefer you to call it "Findie". ❜

Lad grins, amused by the quiet appreciative beeps Findie gives Caelus. Surprised it hadn't just talked, but who knows.. maybe it's just nervous around someone belonging to the I.P.C. (it's creator). He ain't one to judge.

❛ I found and rebuilt Findie right here on Belobog, actually. Ran into a problem and ending up "Findieing" it, and used it's help to get some missing pieces to fix a.. cart? I think? It's been a while. I have nothing against antiques, but I wouldn't say I am one to go out of my way to collect them. ❜

Yes, he chuckles at his own pun. No, he is not ashamed. If you can't find yourself funny and like your own jokes, what's the point? Though he silently agrees to Aventurine's comment, that Findie will be handy and useful. (He's just glad he didn't forget it on the Express. That would have made this job a lot harder.) And lad also listens to his friend's suggestion, gently guiding Findie to move towards the (rather intimidating) crevice. Caelus just hopes it doesn't get more narrow than it initially looks he's not a big fan of small spaces.

And as if Aha is looming over him, right after a warning of not getting stuck, one foot manages to slide due to some small unattached rocks along the pathway, nearly tripping and falling over. A disbelieving laugh and slightly embarrassed smile brightens his face as he looks at Aventurine with a nod.

❛ Yeah. I will do my best to not get stuck. ❜

Roll [ 1 - 3 ] | Result: 3

Though maybe the almost-trip was worth it, because as soon as he rights himself, shoving the blunder away from his mind, Findie starts glowing a green beam towards where he (nearly) fell. Really? ... Didn't it just show red? Wouldn't it have been at least yellow.. or orange? It was an older model, and you know.. in general kind of old. So things can happen- he ain't upset about it. So, the Nameless goes ahead and uses his hands to move around some of the larger rocks along the side of the path, and even makes a pile of snow before fingertips brush against something... that feels similar to fur, but not quite.

Then he feels something almost painfully chilly, like an ice cold sting as the texture of metal meets skin. Eventually, with enough digging, the lad is able to get the thing in his grasp and (carefully) pull it free. Oh, a pair of gloves..! That explains the differing textures (and the metal burning his hand due to it being so cold) at least. He gives it a quick look over, noting how there were spots where buttons might have been- and several points along the fingers were missing a joint connector.

So.. a three star relic. Boooooooo... Oh well, something better than nothing! Take what you can, and get back to the Grind.

❛ It looks real rough.. Maybe someone left it behind on purpose, not thinking it was worth to take something of such poor quality..?

Still, I'd say finding anything this early is pretty luck..! I just hope I don't have to "stumble" into anything else we find...... ❜

Caelus, the comedic genius ladies, gentlemen, and variations thereof.
