Text Cut: sneaky Professor and Vickers *pets*

As Professor Bentley responded to her nervous housemate, Stella caught the wink that had been sent her way and immediately knew they weren't getting out of the activity. Something told her this was going to be even more dangerous than the pixies, and she spent a moment wondering how she'd explain any injuries. Odds were she wouldn't be able to hide them, and the snargaluff could definitely do more damage than the pixies had. A scratched cheek and tangled hair was nothing, and even though she understood what the professor had meant about stressful situations teaching them about what they could accomplish, that didn't make her any more comfortable with the situation.

She tried to hide the trepidation as the boy had turned to her again, though. There was no need to make him any more nervous, by knowing that she was. She even dropped her braid, making herself seem that much more confident as she returned his shy smile. "It's nice to meet you, Vickers. I'm Stella," she replied, her own dark eyes following his toward the snargaluffs that half their classmates had apparently faced already. Not to mention the few who were currently struggling with them. "I guess we have a bit more time before it's our turn, at least. Would you rather deal with the pod or the branches?," she asked. Maybe just jumping in would help them get it all over with, even if there was still that discussion before they actually tackled the plant.

A task like this is no easy feat, and when under pressure you learn a lot about yourself." All would become clear in due time. "Just do your best, you might even surprise yourself..."

It wasnt exactly what he was hoping to hear... however he did hear someone offer to help him out? He turned his head and realized the offer came from a fellow Claw. With one last glance to the Professor ~~in case she was joking and she'd give them a free pass~~ he turned his attention to the brunette "Okay." he replied as he smiled shyly. He gave a nervous glance at the stump just before tearing his eyes back to the girl "I'm...I'm Vickers, what's your name?" Being cordial he is you know, other than the fact that he also needs to know who he's leaving his last will and testament to.
