It's hard to resist instinct and not pull himself up and away when a set of razor-sharp teeth snaps at him like that, but he manages it. Some...of the time. Enough that he's hopefully not causing too much of a problem for Mephisto. The girlish yelps, however? Those can't be helped.
Mephisto is letting the serpent jump awfully close to him now, and Prompto has to ask himself (not for the first time) if it was a good idea to trust him. But that doesn't matter now. What matters is not getting eaten, so he pipes up with a panicked: ]

[ ...The serpent catches his boot.
He freezes in midair, staring down aghast at the sight, waiting for the crunch of teeth and bone about to come - but it doesn't. Instead, the serpent is cleanly sliced through, its body dropped away with the head still affixed to his boot. So, that's a thing now.
...After a long moment, he glances over at Mephisto. ]
