[As he's grabbed, he offers Ademnet a sharp look, but it doesn't last as he takes notice of the blood that's seeping from the walls, encouraged by the (failed) shove and command.
Fortunately, Barnabas isn't exactly petty, so he does not hesitate to move towards the rope and begin his ascent. To avoid the slickness of the walls (and transfering any of it to the rope), he avoids putting his feet on it. Thus he relies primarily on his upper body to climb, only using his leg to steady the rope so that Ademnet is not shaken too much by his climbing.
Even should Ademnet prove a poor or slow climber, Barnabas assumes he can pull him up the rest of the way once he reaches the top, if necessary. Though, for now he is focusing on tirelessly climbing, eyes locked on the hatch above them.]
