Hello there, snakey. Ginia watches the snake with interest as it goes in its merry slithering path without any ill-intent toward either of them. Her attention quickly goes toward Helios as he moves to hide behind her, his fear almost tangible. She turns to face him, giving him space between them. The snake is long gone, having already slithered off into the underbrush.

/It's okay, Helios, it's gone. Just breath deeply, you're fine./ That he's afraid of snakes and so deeply so is a little surprising, but she doesn't judge. What's most important now is making sure he's calmed down and okay. /I'm here, don't worry./
