Meanwhile, somewhere up above you, a tiny voice snickered at your terror as little chitinous mandibles wiggled in mirth.
Or so I’d imagine were I to have experienced that one.
You're pretty close. I couldn't detect exactly where she was, but her snicker gave me an idea. I stuck a Snickers bar in the first stick web line I could find and yanked an tugged at it as if I were stuck and thrashing. She immediately attacked the bar (her speed was astounding - 2 minutes wasn't nearly enough of a head start). Many don't know that caramel nugat has a soporific effect on spiders. She slept and I escaped.
