We're going to have to be calm and rational if we want to get ahead in this.

[ But he doesn't sound super optimistic, yeah. ]

[underinworld]

Why couldn't a detective or an expert in deductions get abducted into this place. It'd have been so nice.

[Alas, that'd have been me, but I swerved from Van Zieks to Erin as soon as I saw the setting, haha]

[recession]

[ Van Zieks!!! God him being here would've been so funny.

Daan just sighs. ]

If only. But, well. It's part of a journalist's job to stick her nose into everything, isn't it? You might be the closest we'll get.

[underinworld]

Yeah, guess so. Did my part, but I'm not done yet. There's this sack of something I found and first thing I'll do in the trial is find out what it is.

[Erin is 100% sure she'll hate it. The more she talks about it with people, the more she dreads that]

[recession]

...

This fog is pretty annoying, huh?

[ Their inability to see things... if only they could start now. Even 24 hours of investigation isn't enough when they're all so poorly qualified. ]

[underinworld]

I had enough fog for a lifetime already.

[Too bad, Erin, you live in England. Fog is a given during many times]

[recession]

[ Daan also lives in basically fantasy UK-France. He is also constantly dealing with fog. Amazing. ]

Me too.

Maybe I should move to someplace sunnier after all this.

[underinworld]

Going to the less foggy place I can think: a desert. Morocco, Turkey, the bloody Saharan Desert. Somewhere like that.

[She doesn't even know if Turkey has deserts]

[recession]

...

I don't know any of these places but I'm sure they're nice.

Desert might be a bit much, but it'd definitely be different.

[underinworld]

Just...

[She shakes her head]

A vacation of any kind would be so nice. We all need one.

[recession]

We did have one. It was the island.

[ Which was still SUCKY because it was OMINOUS and had a NIHILISM TENT but objectively, a couple of people did manage to have it in themselves to take it as a bit of a break moment.

Good for them. Daan was not among this number. ]

[underinworld]

With the specter of a cult doing their horrible things hanging over our heads? Doesn't count.

[Erin relaxed somewhat because she stole a house and therefore had some nice things, but she sure never forgot why they were here in the first place!]

[recession]

Just settling for what we have right now, that's all.

[ Daan only had a bit of reprieve when he was weirdly happy on Monday. It has been high stress since. ]
