[Pokey says "down", and Picky throws himself to the ground immediately. When the explosion rocks the area behind him, he curls into himself a little. It's scary, and disorienting, and...
And now he has to run, because Pokey said that, too. Back up to his feet, and he's charging through the gap left by the missile. There's just one look back, and he can see the tentacled things trying to climb all over Josephine... But Pokey can beat them. He HAS to. He believes in his brother. And that IS him up there, he believes it, even if he looks and feels a bit funny.
No more looking back, no more lingering. Just running. Lots of running.]
