[He called down to Leanne, and focused on what to do next. Perhaps if he swung his legs forward he could grasp the trunk with them and stabilize himself. His ploy worked after a few tries. He gasped. He was getting far too old for this.]
Uh, yeah... I'm perfectly fine. [ There's not much for her to do down here, after all, though she does hear a rustle of leaves coming from the bushes just a stones throw away and turns her head in that direction. She assumes it from a small animal just going about its business and turns her attention back. ]

[The problem with wrapping his legs around the trunk for balance and hanging onto a branch with his arms was that he had no extra limbs to spare.
Fuck.
After a few moments, he realized that there was no way in his current position to be able to make it down.]
Nggghhhh... I. err... I think there is a problem.

[ She quirks a brow, and after a second of awkward, deadly silence her eyes begin to widen. ]
Oh my God, are you stuck? You're stuck, aren't you? How'd you manage to do that!?
