[Dorian curses under his breath when the girls jump and Callisto seems to follow without hesitation. He sprints across the gap between them and throws his arms around her waist to pull her back from the edge before she goes over. Even if she hadn't jumped, that ledge wasn't the most sturdy and she was already gambling with her life getting as close as she did.

He drags her back, ducking his head and closing his eyes so he doesn't look down. He doesn't want to see that abyss below, he doesn't want to see the thing within. The heights are gut-wrenching enough for him that he's just burying his head against her shoulder as he pulls her back to safety. He won't release her just yet, clinging to her back and waiting to be sure she won't try to break free and jump.]

Don't. Please. It won't do any good. Don't lose to those things. Don't give up. We have to survive this. That's the only way we'll win. It wants us to give up.
