[Freaking narrow stairs. She does pretty well, but while jumping over one, another takes her in the gut.]
Oomph.
[Which would have knocked her clear off - except she wrapped her arms around it. Which meant that its next move knocked her back into the wall. She grit her teeth, embracing the pain and clinging on - her perseverance was rewarded when the tentacle rotated the other way, towards the opposite end of the stairs. She curled up around it in order to keep one of the other tentacles from grabbing on to a leg and tearing her apart - this would never work if it was a Sentinal grabbing her. But it was just an obstacle course.
So she could slip of the tentacle, angled at the flat edge at the end of the stair.

She lands in a pained heap. Booyah?]
