[ A woman is chained up like as a creepy sacrifice, of course she's impatient!
Hermione's hesitation gets a suspicious squint, and she considers swiping the key and going on ahead. Luckily, sense is found, and Vi is curious to see what that kind of magic spell will feel like. She had planned to just grab onto the pillar with her gauntlet and drop them down. Personally, she prefers the feel of the landing. It lets her know when to roll and when to slam. In this case, though...rolling...wouldn't be good.
She waits for Hermione to grab on before reaching up to give her hand a little reassuring pat. She said to hold on tight, but Vi won't let her fall even if she lets go. Hyperaware of the proximity as she hooks her bare hand under one of Hermione's knees to help give her more leverage, Vi gets to her feet and backs up a bit further. Hermione weighs...nothing. This will be easy.
If Vi won't need to grab onto anything, she might not need her gauntlet, but she keeps it on just in case Hermione's spell doesn't soften the landing. With readied breaths and tightened muscles, the sprint from the door to the pool's edge gives her momentum to launch high enough so that they sail clear across to the center.
The cushion of the fall nearly throws off her balance, even with the warning. Nearly. ]
