[This whole thing could definitely use more fun, it's true.
But at least that move of theirs worked! Hibiki gives a cheer from up above when Steve manages to stop the pod's crash, waving her hand in the air.]
Yeah! Nice catch, Mister Stev--
[Unfortunately, she's also soon cut off by a Sudden Tree. Crashing into the hire branches before tumbling down to the ground in a pile of twigs and leaves and dust.]
[ Steve can't help it - he flinches for Hibiki's sake, watching the entire tragedy in every agonizing second and knowing there's really nothing he can do from where he is.
But as soon as he's popped the pod door open, allowing the newly landed passenger to find their feet, he rushes towards the tree and offers his teammate a hand.
She does look fine, at the very least, if a little rattled. ]
[That was a pretty ungraceful landing and a pretty far cry from the victory pose she'd imagined herself striking when she hit the ground, something like what she imagines Tsubasa or Maria might have pulled off, both being a whole lot more graceful than she is.
But the pod is safe on the ground and the person inside just fine and only Hibiki's pride is hurt from that fall so that's a win! Yay... she still could've been a little cooler though.
She's in the middle of digging herself out from under the mess of tree when she realizes she's not alone and she lifts her head, looking a bit sheepish behind the bits of leaves and twigs clinging to her.]
Y-yeah, that wasn't so bad. [She reaches up, gratefully accepting the hand offered to her.] Thanks.

Hey - you sure? That was a pretty rough landing.

[ Steve helps to hoist her out of the bramble of foliage. Sure, the landing probably could have used some work, but no one's judging here.
Steve certainly isn't.
He smiles, gesturing towards the sky in reference to the pretty cool moves she pulled earlier. ]
I'm guessing this isn't the first time you've done something like that.
