[No. Stop screaming. Wednesday slaps her hands over her mouth and of course all thoughts that maybe she ought to find a weapon too have been chased away completely. No no nope I'm fine like this actually!!
[She straightens. Lifts her shaking hands from her face.]
It hurts, but... That's all. It doesn't seem like it actually damaged me.
[Definitely feels like it though!! They get up, up the sword to lever themself with. But they are moving way better than a person with a grievous stomach wound should, so there's that.]
[Wednesday nods, and - it's a little harder this tine, with wet shoes on slippy walls, but nothing she hasn't had to do in gym class - shimmies back up the rope to the top of the well.]

A-are you...
Re: THE BOTTOM OF THE WELL
They're keeping this sword. Cardinal gingerly touches the wound, starting to move around and realize that they're actually fine.]
Ugh. I'm alright Wednesday, it just startled me.
I think I can officially say touching anything sharp is a bad idea. We should get out of here.
Re: THE BOTTOM OF THE WELL
[THERE IS A SWORD IN YOU.
[Okay it's mostly out now but... aaaaaah avante are far too used to stabbing themselves!!]
Do you think you can climb back up? Aren't you going to put that down what if it stabs you again?
[Look I am discounting nothing at this point]

If it attacks again, I'll be ready this time.
[Probably.]
Re: THE BOTTOM OF THE WELL
[They're bleeding quite a lot...
[She steps back to allow Cardinal to get back to the rope, then hesitates.]
Um, should I go first? I can run and get help... Unless you need help, or something...
Re: THE BOTTOM OF THE WELL
I can make it, I promise. It really looks worse than it is. Some kind of illusion.
[A real illusion?? Whatever, they're not dying so it's fine.]
Re: THE BOTTOM OF THE WELL
[She reaches for the rope.]
Re: THE BOTTOM OF THE WELL
I'll be right behind you.

Re: THE BOTTOM OF THE WELL
Do they get to keep the sword?]
Re: THE BOTTOM OF THE WELL
