[ The ground rumbles and shakes - and then opens up. The earth swallows you whole, leaving you in front of . . . blobs . . . Oh they're a little cute, aren't they?

But the world is a bit dark, isn't it? It's a little scary . . . isn't it? ]

[R.I.P the part of Pathiri's outfit that got sacrificed to the blobs. Actually, r.i.p most of his outfit since he got dripped on and dirtied up. He isn't too injured, just taking some deep breaths to calm down now that the danger has... apparently passed? Still gonna keep his eyes open until they're all out of here even if the blobs are gone, though.]

[ kind of a puddle thanks to tanking those strangles, but once she's a little more with it and done processing that as a Thing That Really Just Happened she'll sort of. scoot clumsily over. guess who never actually got her wrists and arms fixed from that last game :x ]

[assassinatedassassin]

[oh right his teammate is also here and- ACTUALLY IN A WAY WORSE STATE NOW THAT HE'S TAKING A GOOD LOOK AT HER JEEZ

Kneeling right on down and dragging her up out of the dirt into his lap?? Not going to try picking her up entirely yet since she's bigger than him.]

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ weirdly, she's actually light enough that he probably could— she weighs maybe about half as much as someone her size should, at most.

making a raspy little squeaky noise of surprise, but more or less obligingly ragdolling across his legs to complete the cat image ]

Hi?!

[assassinatedassassin]

Hi.

[A short, super belated greeting after All That.

Anyway, yeah, she is in fact oddly lightweight, so just gonna shift her into his arms and stand up now. He is not eager to stick around long.]

Wait— wait, I can— I was just getting my breath back—

[ wait why is she arguing against being carried. what is wrong with her. THIS IS HOW SHE KNOWS SHE'S REALLY SHAKEN UP, ]

[assassinatedassassin]

You sure?

[Cause you look like a mess??? Less so now that Akira did his weird blue person thing. He'll let her down right away if she struggles at all, but...]

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ the ragdoll has in fact intensified, so actually the opposite of that thing ]

I. I mean. If you really want to I won't say no but also didn't they go after your feet...

[assassinatedassassin]

M'fine.

[But moving to put her back down on her feet now because he does not particularly "really want to" and she seems uncomfortable. It is faster if they both walk! And less likely for them to get tossed down another hole!]

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ ...she played herself .-. she wobbles a bit as she's set down, but true to her word regains her balance and promptly uses it to scoot out of his personal space, since he apparently doesn't want her there after all... ]

You're sure? I thought I saw...

[ mimes something sticking to her face ]

[assassinatedassassin]

[Kind of hovers while she's wobbling in case he needs to steady her, but doesn't stop her from stepping away.]

I can make it back.
