The paths in the caves are pretty smoothed out, but he probably wouldn't be able to make it too far off them in any direction. ]

[ and finn hasn't been too far inside since the last time, about far enough to enjoy the hot springs anyway. ]

And no, there aren't... creatures, exactly. More like people. But they live pretty deep inside. They've never ventured out to where the springs are.

I was just thinking that he could map out the caverns along the way so we wouldn't have to worry about getting turned around in there.

[ even better if he's already been down there, but poe's pretty confident that they can find their way to these springs without too much trouble either way, especially if finn's been there before ]

people, huh? are they friendly?

That might be a good idea. Most of the paths leading to and from the springs are easy to follow, but we also may not want to be roaming around in there after dark.

I'm not sure. I didn't run into them, only heard about them from people who did. Apparently they just... live there.

I wasn't planning on it just because it'll be that much colder when we get out, but is there something else I should be worried about?

[ not that he's worried, between the three of them they can handle anything ]

Alright, just harmless cave people, probably. Well as long as they're not going to ambush us at the springs, it'll be fine.

[ they'd have a bad time if they did try it ]

Worried? No. From what I heard, they were more nervous of us than we were of them. And they're not looking to poke their heads out any time soon.

[ which means they can enjoy the hot springs in peace, if that was poe's original plan. ]

... you're not worried, are you?

what, about what might be living down in those caves? of course not. I just want to be prepared

[ so what if their last joint venture into a cave had turned out... well, it hadn't been fun, but it had been necessary. this is totally different ]

But you had something else in mind when you thought about going down there.

[ he's putting the pieces together. ]

[ for a second he's almost confused, he got distracted talking about cave people for a minute, he has to back up a bit now ]

aside from the fact that it'll feel amazing to soak in some hot water after dealing with all this snow? I don't know, once we're hot, wet and naked I might have some ideas

Chances are once we’re in there we won’t have to worry about company, you know.

[ especially if they’re left bb-8 to do some mapping work. ]

[ now he's got it ]

if someone else does come in they can find their own pool

I guess we'll probably need to bring some lights

Last time I was there, there were candles. [ you know, poe. mood lighting. ]

I'm not sure if it's anyone's job to keep them lit, but bringing along a lantern or two might not be a bad idea.

[ mood lighting is great and all but he's not counting on those candles still being there ]

that's the plan

it would be a shame to get down there and not be able to see you

[ soaking in the hot water is only half of the point, after all ]

You got something more in mind than a relaxing soak?

[ that's a rhetorical question. he knows for a fact that poe has more than that in mind. ]

don't I always?

[ finn knows better than anyone that he doesn't have sex on his mind all the time

but it's still pretty often ]

what can I say, seeing you all hot, wet and naked puts me in a mood

After the storm we just had, I wouldn't mind the chance to head somewhere warm.

[ and the rest of it... well, obviously. ]

Did you mention it to Rey?

exactly

[ sorry what? he got distracted thinking about... things ]

I'm about to. I'm sure she'll be on board
