[ It is pretty humorous. Considering that by this point JJ has faced down sea serpents and other horrific monsters, the fact that him and Beverly are currently being defeated by a little rain and mud is frankly hilarious. The awkwardness of the situation also adds to the humour, and he's relieved that Beverly seems to be in good spirits about the entire situation rather than angry and hostile.
She sounds like she could be a friend, and JJ's always keen to see more of those. ]
Yeah- let's.
[ It catches him off guard when she pulls at him as they try to move, the heavy rain making it feel as though they're walking through molasses. Their feet stick in the mud, legs knocking into each other when one of them fails to get out of the mud quickly enough, and eventually JJ gets tired of the sad squelching path they're taking.
So he leans forward slightly, one hand going around the back of Beverly's legs as he yanks her out of the mud and into his arms. ]
I'm going to power through it.
[ Is his explanation, easier to force one pair of feet through the mud rather than two. He pulls at his feet slightly to loosen the mud's hold, yanking one out and then other before he just. Starts to run? As best as he can toward what is hopefully sturdier ground. ]
