Furball, after quickly switching tenses to achieve a more dramatic effect, taps Robin's shoulder.
"Er, actually Robin, it's a myth. You can't go around saying the Loch Ness monster is a legend and you can't go around saying John Henry was a myth. Humans are legends, things of other species are myths. Don't complain to me about this obvious speciesism." Furball paused, squinting down at one of her pamphlets. "Oh! Hey!"
Furball leant over the side of the pit and waved at TEO. "Hey TEO! Guess what? You're right in the middle of a den of giant poisonous snakes!" She turned back to Robin and pointed at a paragraph in the pamphlet. "See, you were reading the 'myths' section. What you wanted was the 'pits' paragraph. That's right below it, an easy mistake to make."

"Oh, well, that's all right then... as long as I'm not in a pit of poisonous snakes, then I'll be okay."
TEO swallowed, down in the maze, and latched onto the root of a hedge that dangled down the side of the pit. "Weeble. TEO has no fondness for snakes. Some of them swim in water, for Comrade Stalin's sake... that's almost as bad as fish!"
She climbed up a little higher and watched the mass of snakes wriggle below.
"So. Er. Tourguide Furball... 'pits' was plural. Does that mean there are multiple pits? 'Cause I'm prolly gonna be the one to fall down the majority of them." A pause. The root creaked. "Could someone pull me up? Please? NOW?"

TEO continued to dangle.
"I didn't say anything about anime, did I? I thought not..." TEO used her scary overlordess powers. "And my name is TEO, thanks. Capital letters."

Umm...TEO? I hate to say this, but, there's a snake on your shoe.

"Graaack!"
TEO fainted for a few seconds and then managed to grab Robin's arm and practically run up it, flapping her leg all the while.
"Get it off!"
The snake went flying into the air and over one of the hedges, where it landed in the distance with a slight 'boom.' TEO fell to the ground, gasping.
"This place is crazy hostile, yo."

Furball looked up from reading one of the pamphlets. "Er...uh...TEO...? I wouldn't suggest that you take a step to the left."

"Okay. I'll trust you, Furball."
TEO stood up shakily and looked around, her eyes narrowed, and deliberately took a step to the right. And fell down a pit.
"Bloody hell, this place is out to kill me. Who put it here in the first place?"

Furball frowns, reviewing her pamphlet. After a moment she turns it rightside up. "Oh dear. It appears I've been holding the pamphlet upsidedown this entire time."

TEO got hit with the ladder, cringed, and climbed up.
"Do you have it held properly now? 'Cause I'm starting to get paranoid."
She frowned at the ground and picked a small bronze key up from the dead grass. Habit-- it was impossible to ignore anything remotely shiny.
"Riiight. Now, are we ever going to get to the center or not?"

"I suppose." Furball said reluctantly. "But if we take a small detour we can see mini-George dressed up as a two-headed leopard with tooth decay. He is rather cute." She tapped a unseen bit of pamphlet lightly.

"Detours, then, since we simply MUST see that. And take pictures. Coconut can take pictures, here."
TEO frowned. Where was the bloody cat, anyway? She'd been trying to train it to come when called, but it wasn't working extremely well. She stepped back a little and yelled.
"COCONUT!"
A crater with a slightly singed cat with a Polaroid around its neck formed with an explosion, blasting part of a hedge out of the way as it appeared. Coconut staggered forwards to TEO, looking murderous.
"I hate and despise you."
"Hush, cat. Your training's working, I see."
"Aye, perhaps too well."

Furball gasped. "Don't worry Coconut! As a guide I'm always prepared for these sort of things!" Furball then began to dig through her bag. After a few minutes she gave up. "Well, I was prepared, but I gave my last band-aid to TEO yesterday because she got a papercut."
