Yes. Well. Yes. [Yes, Vi left. No, it's not the important thing right now. The important thing right now is that she's not going to fall.] Y-yes. I won't fall.
[She takes a few hesitant steps backwards, trying to remember how to breathe. She can do this. And a pretty girl calling her a badass... Her heart firmly belongs to Vi, but it can't help but flutter in response to that, which only strengthens her resolve. She can do this.
She runs and jumps and-- Was that the wrong foot? Should she have jumped off the other foot? Does she need to reach her arms out? Is her form wrong? Should she be bracing for--
Her jumbled, panicky thoughts are interrupted by her arms slamming into the edge of the balcony. She grabs on, her fingerless gloves thankfully protecting her palms but doing nothing for her fingertips.
There's a long heart-stopping moment of hanging out over nothing that leaves her convinced she's going to fall to her death. And then another long moment of gracelessly flopping around as she hauls herself up. But finally, she's lying on solid wood, staring up at the sky, trying to get her breathing under control.]
