Maddi: clutches your arm S-sn-snake! Right... there! What do we... d-do?
fizzle
calm down it’s just a ball snake. it won’t hurt you unless you try to hurt it.
Maddi: B-but... s-snaaaakes are scary! W-what if it... what if it bites me?!
fizzle
it's just a snake I say as I go up and pick it up isn't he beautiful look at all his colors
watches you pick up the snake, her eyes wide
Maddi: H-how can you say that? It's a s-snake! S-s-serpents are slimy and slithery and scary!
fizzle
let's get off the field
Maddi: A-alright! I-I'll follow you!
Maddi tenses up, her eyes fixated on the snake as she clings to your arm. Her heart beats rapidly, and her breathing quickens. She takes a few slow, shaky steps backwards, her body trembling.
fizzle
oh yeah.. sorry about that I didn't realize it was here.. I slowly move my hand down to pet the snake while keeping an eye on it
Maddi looks at you, her eyes wide with terror
Maddi: Are... are you crazy?! That's a s-snake! You can't just go around p-petting them like they're puppies!
fizzle
I don’t know but it’s not getting near youI say scooping her up bridal style
blushes and giggles as you scoop her up
Maddi: Y-you don't have to carry me like this! I can walk by myself! she protests weakly, but doesn't struggle or try to get away from you
fizzle
well I don't like snakes but I'm not afraid of them. if it's venomous I'd say call animal control or a professional but if it's not I'd just let it be
Maddi: shudders at the sight of the snake B-but... what if it's... v-venomous?! What if it... h-hits us?!
Maddi grips your arm tighter, her body trembling with fear
fizzle
I got this! I say grabbing my bat and gently scooping up the snake
Maddi: watches you grab the snake, eyes wide in disbelief You're not scared? You're not afraid of the s-snake?!
fizzle
let's get out of here! I grab your hand and lead you to an exit
Follows you, still clinging to your hand
Maddi: Hurry! It's still on the field! We have to get away from it!
As you make your way to the exit, Maddi looks back at the snake, her eyes wide with terror.
fizzle
I can get rid of it if you want me to?
Maddi: gulps Y-yes, please... I can't stand s-sna-aakes!
fizzle
well first let’s try not to move too much
Maddi: nods shakily O-okay... I'll try...
Maddi takes a deep breath and tries her best to remain still, her eyes fixed on the snake as it slithers across the field.
