Nate followed Eli deeper into the mine, more than happy to let the other man go first. Well [i]he[/i] sure as hell wasn't going to be the one that got eaten by whatever monster was living down there. He swung his shotgun around in his hand as he went and contemplated pointing it at the back of Eli's head for his own personal lols but quickly thought better about it. He wouldn't put it past Eli to suddenly turn around and shoot him in the face.

Instead he merrily followed along until they reached another room off to the side. A surprisingly well furnished room at that. Well, by hillbilly standards at least. He had stayed in worse places. Hell, he had just come from one of those places. It would do. He still turned his nose up at it though.

After a moment of looking around, Nate said to himself but still out loud "Mumble, Mumble, something funny, mumble, mumble."
[i]"What?"[/i] he heard his own voice ask him in his head.
Nate waved his hand around beside his head and said "Shhhhhhut up." He offered no explanation for his insane ramblings to anyone who may have overheard and instead turned to Eli and asked "Do you get cable down here?"
