[ well, the water smells... a little earthy, maybe, and a little... well, there's a sort of tang of metal, like there's a lot of iron content in the water, or something. ]
[Yes, this is a little nervous-making, but she's sure she can do this...! Wednesday tests the rope just to be certain, then climbs down after Cardinal.
[Of course it's damp and scary and the walls are slippery and it promptly feels like a really bad idea, but not quite so bad of an idea as letting Cardinal go down a weird well full of whispering voices by themselves, so here she is

[She gestures them over to the edge of the well.]
I... think someone should see this...
[She holds her phone/torch over the rim of the well again.]
That's... not right, is it?

[She holds up the bucket.]
I mean... it looks okay, but... water shouldn't smell of anything, should it? And there was this weird noise when I drew it, too.

Re: THE FIELD & GARDEN
Good idea. Two is better than one.

[They're grab the rope and start climbing down.]

[Deep breaths, Wednesday!
[Wait, what's normally down wells, anyway?]
Re: THE FIELD & GARDEN

also for some reason the bleeding hand isn't hindering, just... well, it still hurts and it still bleeds.
and down you go. ]
