OOC: What's the negative consequence? If you don't take the AoO, there's no difference except no damage to Venckman, right? The draw was avoided by the fall.
(although I realize Michaela can't see Venckman, I thought the following analysis would interest Greybar...)
Venckman circles around tightly, dropping in altitude. He ends up at 30z (drop of 80 which is 40ft of movement for double speed) and spiraling around for 50ft (total 90ft movement--hasted don'tchya know), puts him at 25n60e30z heading northeast. (Note that at average maneuverability, he can go down at 60 degrees, and taking 80/tan(60) is 46.2, so he must move laterally at least 50ft--which he just makes.) -- interesting, no?
Anyway, at that point, Venckman moans a nauseating moan centered in a cone at 20n60e.

Greybar
No Trouble at All
OOC: by striking Venckman, Michaela took down her Invisibility which otherwise would have been intact, though its usefulness is certainly questionable anyway...
[sblock]
Std: Drop Aura of Protection
MEA: move silently (i.e. half-speed) from 20N60E to 20n35e5z, which should keep her moving from cloud to cloud under cover the whole way.

Venckman does something.
[sblock] Cast haste again, it's about to run out. Then fly around in a tight circle (body covering this entire obscuring mist) ending up at 25n55e5z, heading west. Basically, Venckman will be able to find Michaela if Michaela is in this cloud, or in any square neighboring this cloud. If found, veer towards Michaela and stop adjacently to her. [/sblock]
