[ that's fine; it's fine. sabo's used to that kind of back sass (or non back sass that could be seen as such) and it isn't as though he's above that kind of back sass himself. he'll just close an eye out of reflex when the water hits him and focus at the task at hand.
which is definitely to make sure that they both don't go crashing into the water because that will most definitely be bad news. ...and ones that sabo doesn't want to share at this exact moment. ]
How did you even end up like this?
[ you know, to be polite as he secures his hold onto hizen and start to lift him out of the water. ]
(He's holding on for dear life. On one hand, he isn't very heavy. He's pretty small and thin, after all. On the other hand, it's amazing how much water an oversized hoodie can absorb so he's probably being weight down a bit by all of that.)
Fell, obviously.
(Don't ask him how he fell from under a bridge and not over a bridge, though.)
[ please don't tempt me to have sabo fall into the river below so that the two of them can swap roles. ...but sabo will manage to get hizen close enough to the bridge's supports so that he can grab a hold of them himself, which sabo does honestly hope he does. the man might have been a brute back home but he only has so much strength now.
nevertheless, he still has the ability to snort at hizen's response to him. ]
Obviously.
[ sabo will wait until hizen is safely on the bridge before following suit and not-quite hover to make sure he doesn't accidentally slip back in or so. while also minding his own position. ]
From where? I don't see a hole in the bridge anywhere.
(He's quick to throw himself onto one of the posts. He holds on like Simba holding onto a branch for dear life (like that one scene). He just hangs on there, catching his breath and sputtering out some river water.
After a moment, he manages to climb over and just. Falls on the ground. He lays there for a second and really )
[ well once hizen is back on the bridge all "safe and sound", sabo will follow suit and examine his coat to see what kind of damages that it had gone through from supporting the two of them. there are a few ripped seams here and there but nothing that will prevent sabo from slipping it back on as he looks down at hizen with a curious look. ]
I suppose you technically don't, but then that'd pose a bit of a quandary about how that exactly occurred.
[ not that he doesn't mind puzzles, but at the same time, maybe he doesn't have to over complicate this? given the kind of place they are and what people are capable of... ]
(He grumbles. Yeah, yeah, if he doesn't need a hole to fall down than that means there was something else. Unless Sabo is going to believe he was just swinging around under the bridge like a monkey or something...)
[ hmmm. he's going to have a moment to think of the possibilities. and i am glad that one piece is filled with nonsensical abilities because sabo won't find it too strange to end up on the other side of a bridge. ...he also wouldn't judge hizen if he did just swing under the bridge like a monkey. sometimes it be like that. ]
Does it involve teleporting then?
[ since that seems to be the most obvious one to him. ]

Or maybe the answer is quite simple?
