They worked together side-by-side to clean out the inside of the fort until it was as shining and clean as dirt could be. Atoll grinned, even though he was smudged and dirty - ugh! He could clean up later, though, once they were really all done. He admired the space they'd cleaned, the floor packed down to an even level and the walls looking more like walls than freshly turned over soil. It did still smell like dirt in there, though. He'd have to figure out how to fix that.
"Next we hang the door!" He announced, scooting out of the fort and towards the entrance. Atoll stood on his hind legs and used the sharp end of a broken stick to bore a hole in the tree bark. It was useless, breaking off immediately as he started. He wrinkled his nose in frustration and stood back to inspect the space more clearly. There were two notches on either side of the entrance that his curtain/door might rest in, but they were a bit uneven. He hemmed and hawed over it for a minute before finally giving up, picking up the large branch that held the curtain of leaves and resting one end of it in the lower notch on the right hand side. "Could you do that other side, Kai?" Atoll gestured towards the left hand side, where there was a tight space inside of a knot in the tree that the curtain "rod" could be inserted into. He couldn't quite reach it on his own.
"I'm gonna find some stuff for the inside, it smells like dirt in there," he said, which should be obvious, but he still felt worth mentioning. Atoll crept along the base of the ravine, looking for some fresh flowers to stow inside.
