All In All It's Just Another Brick In the Wall

Ruga grunted in response to her greeting and her assurances that while she had tried to be quiet there was only so many hours of light to get this done in. He waved the not-quite-apology off with a motion of his paw. "It's fine." It was his mistake for having too much to drink the night before and not anticipating that she would want to start digging the base for a wall at the crack of dawn. It didn't mean he was going to be in any better of a mood though. He took the water he was offered and downed it while she explained how much she had gotten done so far. He looked from the dug up dirt to her, forcing himself to give her a slight smile in return and nod as she suggested he get something to eat and then join her. "Sure." She walked off and he sighed before turning and walking into the seperate alcove where he kept his supplies, pulling out some pieces of dried meats to have a quick breakfast and hopefully make himself feel slightly move alive before he went out to face his morning glory and the dumb wall he was now regretting signing up for.

It didn't take him long before he was back outside with her, walking over to where she had continued to dig one side of the wall. He looked over to where the other half would need to be dug and he knew that would certainly be the easiest and less obtrusive option for him to take to just put his head down and start getting to work. He wasn't particularly in the mood for letting them both just work in peace though. He ended up joining her in digging this side of the wall, starting from the opposite corner than where she had begun so he could meet her somewhere toward the middle, but every once in a while he would "accidentally" kick up a clump of dirt toward her to either hit her with it or toss it over into where she had already dug. He didn't look up from what he was doing to see if he had aimed well enough though, keeping up a perfectly innocent act of a hung over man doing sloppy work.
