Cecilia took a slight amount of comfort from Neric, her hand coming over and resting on the back of her neck, her elbow dangling downward. "[i]Whew[/i], that's good. I don't know about James, but I can use all the help I can get," she said as lightly as she could to the Void, but they could probably tell from her face that she was still fairly nervous and she had a good feeling she would probably stay that way until the climb was well behind her. "Well... we should get our safety gear. Maybe we'll feel a lot better while having it on(?), heh, heh..." she mentioned, trying to sound less anxious than she actually was, but she wasn't at all convincing. Cecilia stood from her seat, and if she was the first to do so, she'd hold her hand to James to get him out of his seat. There'd be little point in doing so, she'd admit, but her mind was understandably somewhere else and he needn't take her hand if he didn't want to. She'd go on with James and Neric to the rack that had sets of gear for both of them.
