If you need to fight a giant snake, you definitely want to fight it on land. In D&D from editions 1st through 3rd, fighting in water was a sure way to end up with a TPK (Total Party Kill for the noobs). But in 5th and I think 4th, it was barely an inconvenience. Wearing chainmail? No problem. Fighting with a two-handed club? No penalty at all! Breathing? I don't know if they ever mentioned it.

Now of course Miss Victory can fly and is presumably strong enough to carry a giant snake while flying, so I would think she could get out of the water and into air. Even if she couldn't see, the pool has a lot of glass walls so she could fly in almost any direction.

The real question is: can you use your super flight power while in water? This usually comes up in superhero games. Because there is a flight power, which of course is very common and desirable. But... there is also a super-swimming power. So would that preclude using flight in water? After all, a plane can't fly under water. That's one for the scientists to figure out.

Okay, I think I've rambled enough to call this one ready to publish.
