... I know.

[Tifa huffs out with a relieved sigh and straightens, though she never goes too far from him after that.

And in about ten steps, she's going to regret not moving just a little bit closer, or not stepping to walk behind him rather than beside, because she's going to completely miss the well-hidden hole that's in the rocks, the orbs hitting it in such a way that it looks like jagged edges with how it lights up the ground further below. An awkward trick of the eye.

And even if she was paying attention, she wouldn't think much of it. She's too focused on the digging sounds in the distance to bother looking down for the one second that it takes for her foot to suddenly slip.

She screams, and it echoes loudly through the caves, and Eustace will feel her suddenly drop from his side, her hand slipping slightly from between his fingers as she disappears down into the hole. Fortunately, she doesn't let go completely, but he'll definitely feel his arm being wrenched downward along with her—]


Eustace!?

[While the drop down isn't a far one, it's still far enough that breaking her fall would still find a way to injure her one way or another...]
