[fish eggs are probably one of the least weird things to happen in Trench, but seeing human bodies writhing in them...it's a viscerally nasty thing, you know? no time for recoiling or retching, though: someone's in there!
Manabu slides over, slowing his momentum by dropping to his knees before bumping into the red mass, getting all kinds of the heebie-jeebies. at least it's warm? that's nice. but it's got to go.
getting back to his feet, he unholsters his gravity saber, grimacing a bit as he considers how to do this without hurting the person inside. it means puncturing some of the membrane carefully...swallowing back on a want to heave, he grabs at a gooey mass and thrusts the edge of the saber in before firing a brief little laser shot to burn a hole in. he casts the weapon aside and sets to work pulling that hole open.]
C'mon! Almost--!
[once he can grab her wrist and yank it up, the rest should be pretty quick!]
