[ Sakura doesn't reply because she's concentrated so intensely at getting this right. There's not much going through her head - no calculations or anything or the sort. Just the instinctive feel of someone who understands the ground beneath her feet and the space above her.
As she climbs and reaches the absolute top she can, she grabs the rope and throws it towards the latch on the window. There's a moment where it feels like it won't make and Sakura throws herself with the rope.
There's a tense moment where she's freefalling to the ground but she wraps the rope end around herself.
Sakura's weight pulls the window open - the groan of metal as the whole pane swings outwards, leaving a wide open window and the gentle tinkling of music filtering in. ]
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. I'm dizzy.
[ she's clinging on for dear life as she lowers herself to the window ledge ]
[It's a shame that the music playing is so beautifully haunting, because this really calls for a heroic, adventuring soundtrack like Indiana Jones; Tuuri watches, riveted, as Sakura jumps after the rope, holds her breath as she falls, and gasps as the window creaks open.
Tuuri breaks out into applause.] Oh my god! That was so cool! Sakura! Are you okay?
[Tuuri rushes to climb the window again herself.]
Hold on! That was the coolest thing I've ever seen!
[ Sakura lets herself down onto the window ledge. She's got swirls in her eyes but she feels the breeze blowing across her face, and she soon feels better.
Meanwhile, anything Tuuri would have said has gotten lost in her dizziness. Sorry about that.
But after a moment, she stands up onto her feet and swearing never to do that again. ]
[By the time Sakura's recovered, Tuuri has finally managed to scramble onto the ledge.]
Hee, so cool... [Yep, she's still going at it-- at least she can tell that Sakura's not up to 100% yet.] Hey, Sakura, are you alright? Do you need to rest for a minute?
[The question trails off, a little hopeful, now that the music is trickling in clearer through the open window.]

[ Sakura says as she dusts herself off, gingerly getting to her feet. ]
Now I get what you mean by the music though.
[ She scoots over to Tuuri, pretty much clinging onto her arm. ]
I think I preferred everything when I was normal size.
[ she says wistfully as she looks out the window ]

[She props her chin up in her hand, gazing out the window alongside Sakura to listen.]
Mm, maybe. It was fun at first, but I wouldn't want it to be like this forever. It was just a nice adventure, you know?
