Only the tentacles are dangerous. Avoid close combat. [ it's a curt reply, mostly because he's focusing on crossing this gap. ] Sticky Fingers!
[ Maybe they could jump across, but Bruno wouldn't consider it a certainty, and it doesn't look like his partner had any intentions of doing so, either; it's more sensible to bet on the safer option. At his command, Sticky Fingers slams one fist against its wrist before slinging that arm forward in a punch, sending one hand spiraling forward on a zipline until its knuckles crack against the opposite side of the chasm. Bruno tightens his grip on Illumi's arm, and in a moment, the two of them are sliding across the gap on a zipper as the stump of his wrist rushes to reunite with his disembodied hand on the other side. Of course, hitting the rock face with a punch meant putting a zipper there, too, and once his hand's fastened back into place, it's already gripping the pull tab on the new opening, now zipping them upwards the short distance to the top of the cliffside.
It all happens very quickly, and he offers no explanation once they're across, merely gritting his teeth with the strain of pulling Illumi's weight, too. In spite of everything, he tries to hoist the other man up over the edge of the cliff first, grunting with the effort. ]
