[Levi takes the shovel and moves closer to the snakes but stops when they start staring at him. He's not sure if these are just snakes or something more, given the whole situation.]

I just wanna, uh, s-see what you've got there. I won't hurt you if you don't hurt me. Okay?

[God he feels so stupid talking to snakes like they can understand him and care. He lowers the shovel before him and takes a few more steps towards the snakes. He just wants to push them aside as carefully as he can. Maybe things will actually work out nicely this time?
He's tense, though, ready to jump back in the more likely event that shit happens.]
