LIBBS
"Yeah." Libbs nodded, acknowledging that indeed she was looking to the earth for material, looking down at the mud. Her eyes scoured the soil for a second, just like some of the folks at the settlement had taught her to do. Mind you, finding exactly what she was looking for was difficult, and usually a chore. But she was usually lucky enough to find.. something useful that the mechanic's hands could shape into something practical and helpful. "See, when the soil's wet like this, some rocks are a lot shinier, and maybe can even unearth stuff that got dropped.." she pushed her hand around the mud, plucking something from the mud, and giving it a nice shake.
"Like this!" she chirped, taking a rag and wiping it off to get a closer inspection. The stone was a dark grey, with specks of darker colors, oddly glassy and waxy, as if it was bendable. But as Libbs took out a small knife, she pointed the rock at the muddy puddle, and smacked the rock in several spots. After a few seemingly useless attempts, one strike produced sparks that landed flat in the wet mud.
"Arguably, there's not a lot of flint here." she frowned. "But, I was just gonna break it up anyways into itty-bitty pieces. See if I can make a lighter or somethin'." she nodded. She paused, remembering that he had asked a few questions. "I'm from.. I think it's called the Hollowed Grounds. Before I got here? Some place called.. San.. San.." She held the syllable. "Well, I don't remember. Not like it matters. You said you're from Halo right? A lot of the folks I met lately been from there. I was told it was cold.. very cold. Is that true?" she blinked at him.
