Sue craned her neck up, left, and around as Isla helped them walk up the flight of stairs. The distance between the steps were very comfortable. She knew she was probably the only person in the world who would notice that kind of thing, but when there was nothing else to notice, she supposed thinking about how something felt was the only thing to do. That said, she didn’t like the little overhang over each step: every time she brought her foot up, she bumped her toes against the overhang and nearly tripped.
“Okay,” Sue said, eyeing the stairs as she walked up them to make sure she didn’t break her neck from unlucky step, while Ilsa kept guiding her by the hand. “So once we find something to date this place, or something to tell us where we are, we’ll need to form some kind of meeting to tell everyone what we’ve found.
