[and Grell chuckles behind her hand, not saying what she finds so amusing about the word, but straightening up all the same. her dress is dyed in blood, but surely that was all necessary. she's just grateful that magic quieted for now. when she leaps down from the tree, she lands lighter than should be possible.
not long to linger on that before she sweeps Rapunzel up in her arms like a princess properly deserves. Grell's hold is strong and secure, and she hops back up in two smaller leaps, higher than a human could and without any strain shown at all. when they're back at a safe height, Grell sets her back down very gently, the branches at their level more stable and trustworthy.
(she also may have set down a force spell just to make sure there would be no falling if someone misstepped.)]
My apologies for not asking permission before assisting you, my lady, but I thought you would appreciate speed with these creatures and their utter determination to root us out.
