[ Caitlyn had anticipated the descent being as much of a trial as the climb, doubly so now that Caitlyn's attention is split three ways instead of two. Though Catra seems surefooted, Caitlyn watches anyway, in between moments of staring down at her own feet and glancing over at the Gelfling to make sure he's still conscious.

Getting down preoccupies Caitlyn enough that she doesn't notice the ache in every single muscle she has until it's all over. If she'd been alone, Caitlyn might have leaned up against a wall to slide down it and just sit, but she isn't so she remains upright. It's just as well because she's positive that if she sat down right now, she'd never get back up.

Caitlyn chuckles and rolls her eyes as she shakes Catra's hand, releasing it and rest both of hers on her hips. ]

I'll take some thanks over none. And because I'm feeling generous, I appreciate your work up there. It got us all back here safely.

Yeah, well, Don't mention it. I needed to do some work this month anyway.

[ Perhaps the worst performance of trying to deflect being embarrassed ever. Her tail's still swishing...

Catra turns with a sudden shift, finally stretching her arms out and twisting her head back to Caitlyn, calling out in a teasing tone. ]

See you around~

[ Before starting to walk. Not that fast yet. ]

[pulsefiring]

If you insist.

[ Caitlyn doesn't push her, though she does smile inwardly when Catra whips around. ]

Of course. If you need to do more work, [ because Caitlyn can tease right back, ] let me know. There are a few others on that list I have my eye on.

Fin!

[ Her pace slows. ]

Yeah. I'll let you know.
Or just come to bug you.

[ And with that, one hand waves herself off before she departs. ]
