Eat me, Hellion! [Ali wonders if Bobby is telling Julian what a dick he is over that commlink, wishes she had one of her own to do so herself. She shrugs it off, vaulting up onto a higher branch as the one she's crouched on lets out a creak, and then a deafening crack. At least it knocked out a dupe or two below her as it went.

But soon, it seems like each branch she jumps to is unstable, rotten, covered in ice. Her usually sure-footed climbing skills are making her feel like a drunk monkey. And she freezes.

To her right, just above her, she can see a flash of gold, hears Kitty squeal below. Cold terror sinks in and Ali knows what's going on. Her eyes come up and lock with Longshots, his right eye glowing and his three fingers waving at her as the limb beneath her gives way.]


Oh. Fuck.
