It's a fantasy role-playing game.

DM: You are Vex Vex'ahlia, a half-elf ranger . You are the member of the famous group of adventurers. Previously, Tiny Vax, thanks to a potion that does that. Scanlan managed to go ahead and put in an Immovable Rod within its stomach, which held it up for a moment, before it decided to truly gain the advantage it needed to escape the circumstance, allowed it to tear through its body, as well as an arrow that was shot by you, towards her brother, in the hopes of, I don't know, being a symbol of hope?
DM: No. Not to mention the fact that you are technically in its melee range. So any of your ranged attacks--
Player: Are at disadvantage again, right?
DM: Unless it's five foot. Is it five foot, or is it melee? Trying to remember. I think it's five feet. But regardless, it's close to you, it's bad news.
Player: If Trinket gets up, does that use any of my stuff? Trinket can move freely--
DM: Trinket can move independently of you.
Player: So Trinket is going to get up.
DM: It's half-movement, yeah.
Player: And he's going to bite Umbrasyl's tail to try to distract him, so I can run between his legs.
DM: Okay. So Trinket's going to go ahead and-- roll a perception check for Trinket.
