[ Nahida gives herself some distance from the bushes—enough space for her to react to the bug's appearance, she hopes. She has some idea of what needs to be done—she's seen the activity a few times, in the dreams of the children of Sumeru.

It's a matter of hand-eye coordination, she's observed. Often, children can track the insect with their eyes, but the clumsiness inherent to a being who does not yet fully understand their own range of motion often impedes their success. While she is not a child, she has far less experience moving her body than most.

The insect comes scurrying out as Yato yells, and she finds its movement less erratic than she expected. She's patient, following the insect with her eyes as she tenses in anticipation, and then—

She whips the net forward, slamming the ring of the net onto the ground. Did she get it?
