Look, there had to be a fallen branch somewhere, that kind of thing happened -- it just was gonna take a moment to find one buried under all the debris that collected over time and the plants that grew along the glen's floor.
He did eventually find a stick that maybe seemed sturdy enough -- he saw the end of it sticking out of the ground, inch or two in diameter at the thicker end. Probably a branch that had been downed in the last winter. It took a bit of fussing, but he took a minute or so to snap off the thinner branches, but he was having a little bit of an issue trying to shorten this six foot long thing to something a bit more easily wielded. And now he was starting to step over his own footprints and it was threatening to get muddy beneath him so he wasn't gonna linger about.
Giving up for now, he dragged it back towards where she was "waiting." Mal was starting to pay a little less attention to the earth beneath him, if only because he couldn't dance around while carrying the branch. From where he stood now, he peered around, trying to make sure he wasn't gonna get caught up on anything,
Just wait a month and then it'll all be frozen just to do something different.

So let's see if this works as well as it sounds like it should.He picked it up again and started maneuvering around probably something like trying to parallel park a limousine in order to get the thinner end of the stick out to her.
