[Molly's seen this happen to Beau and Yasha, but that doesn't really prepare you for it happening to yourself. Molly's head brushes against the beginning of the canopy and he has to kind of duck to make certain he doesn't get smacked by low hanging branches or caught in any vines. Luckily, he's graceful... and too focused on protecting his people to really delight in it or show off.
He stomps hard on the mandrine that Nott just loosened, keeping it from extending its vines again to try and grab her once it shakes off the effects of her spell. He drops one of his swords to the side and the rite fades from it and he goes in for the second mandrine barehanded. The poison prickles against his palm, but he bites away through it until the vines around Nott start to slacken and he can release the plant and yank her free and step back with Nott resting in his palm. The same rash on her face seems to be spreading across his enlarged fingertips, but Nott is free and the mandrine is looking pretty fucking rough.]
