But he did catch Vi's warning, and in the nick of time too, as his foot slipped on the slimy edges of the pit. Waving his hands about he tilts towards the side of the not-slugs, and lands on his bum with a resounding THUD. Hey at least its not slimy right?

"What the heck--" he warbled as he tried to figure out what just happened. But Vi said something about GROUND and SLITHERING.

HE was on the GROUND. And naturally the first thought that entered his head when the word SLITHER is uttered....

Fraaaantic scampering on his bum backwards "WHAT?? Theres a SNAKE???"
Merlin. Now that was a close one. She had watched Ace, basically in slow motion, walk forward and then suddenly catch his balance and fall on his butt. Was he okay though? Vi’s blue eyes glanced at him. It seemed like he was okay. She really couldn’t tell though but she suspected that he probably would have a bruised bum from that incident. She smiled. She was partially relieved that her Ace was okay and partially genuinely surprised that she hadn't gone with him on that tumble. Knowing her luck over the past few years, she would have. Hmm.. maybe it was the tattoo that was giving her good luck? Or maybe Ace and her had swapped their luck with each other and she had doomed him forever into being a PROFESSIONAL GRAVITY TESTER?!?!

Wait. No. Wasn't Ace just as clumsy as she was????

Vi couldn’t remember at this precise moment if he was or not (but she was pretty sure that he was) because her attention shifted towards the scooting boy and a very important question about a snake. Vi couldn't tell if it was a snake that was slithering or if it was something else. “I don’t know.. Maybe? I see something shimmering…. but its too dark to get a good luck at it…..” said the brunette. “If it is a snake though, we should get out of here….” Unless for some reason it was a friendly snake which she sorely doubted. Well there were friendly Snakes but as for snakes (with a lowercase S), Olivia didn’t know.

Though for whatever reason, Vi couldn’t help but be intrigued by the mystery of whatever slimy, slithering creature lay in the dark before them. She gripped her wand tighter and then stood up from where Ace was sitting. “I do wonder what it is…” she said glancing at Ace as she tried to look for her wand. She was sure that she had had it a moment ago... Unless she left it in her dormitory... Maybe investigating was the best option? "Are you afraid of snakes?" she asked. It'd probably be good to know that before investigating further.
