This may or may not have been one of those times where he had come up with a plan beforehand. The Ravenclaw knew that's why he was now trudging through the snow up the hill beside his best friend and not someone else. He was the brains of their crew when ideas came along. "Plenty. You want the easy way or a really long stupid, overly complicated way? I've also got the way we we should've tried but may have gotten us caught or killed." Vas leaned a shoulder against Logan's his eyes set on the shack.
Unlike his friend, Logan's 'plan' was overly simple and did not account for anything wrong that could have resulted. He at least had enough sense to not blow up the place, but it would be best that all of the planning be done by Vasco. The likelihood of them being successful and walking away unscathed or in serious trouble was drastically higher.

"I guess that depends on what the simple way is and how overly complicated the long way is. And what was the option that could have gotten us killed? That actually sounds like a fun challenge to me," the blond commented right away.

A brief pause followed, allowing him enough time to actually consider the options as he joined his friend in taking a good look at the shack. Seemed pretty quiet in there, at least from where they were standing. "How about we do the easy way first? If that doesn't work, then we give the stupid complicated way a go." Then, as an afterthought, he added, "And if that doesn't work, we blast our way in."
