[Pietro’s panicking caused her to panic, but she’s less frantic knowing this. It’s probably just more limiting and uncomfortable for him. At least it is not dire.]
Tugging on it only makes it worse. I cannot loosen it. I do not know what to do.
[ a slightly longer delay in response, just because when it does come, there's an image attached -- the same one eloise sent, except with some annotation on it. just simple red line, an indication of which rope is likely snagging more than it should in that knot, and a circle over a specific loop or two. ]
If you worked at this, it might get it undone, but it would take a lot of time and wiggling with how tightly it's trapped. Might be uncomfortable for your partner. [ read: he's very aware that your partner is remarkably impatient. ] Unless they're suitably distracted, maybe.
Still. You're learning. You can try to take it apart, just because seeing how the ropes untangle might help you understand better what went wrong. But as you're aware, part of doing this is being entrusted with someone else's safety. If you ever feel like there's any genuine risk, you should be ready to cut through the rope.
Oh, it would be a good chance to learn. To see where I went wrong with the knot. I think I know though. I was distracted, and I should not have let myself get that way.
[Pietro kept squirming.]
A knife? Oh. I suppose that is smart. It may be easier to use that. Thank you though. This was very helpful. Perhaps I can get your opinions on how to get better in the future.
Having something on hand to cut the rope is always good. You can get trauma shears pretty easily, they'll cut through most things easy enough, and are relatively safe.
Knife might be more fun for you and your partner though, depending on your comfort level.
I'd still recommend getting the shears some time, if just because it might be beneficial to cut through sometime in a way that's less distracting for involved.
Any time, though. Let me know if you need anything else.
