Do I have batteries in my gear? Yep.

Do I need them? Nope.

I know how to make a torch, but flashlights are just so much more indoors-friendly. Particularly if indoors is a hasty shelter of a a couple of branches, a mylar blanket (if that) and a bunch of forest floor litter. Not to mention smaller, and faster to light. And you don't have to extenquish it before you put it in your pocket.

Well... I suppose you culd put a lit torch in your pocket.... I do have a rather sad Dungeon's and Dragons story that involved a halfling, a pocket, and a torch.... Hehehehe.....
