[ hmm.... ]

Suppose we could go hide out in the portal.

[ she nods. ]

The portal sounds nice.

[ to the portal they go!! ]

Do you want to talk, or do something else?

I think... I mostly want to keep busy.

[ she doesn't mind talking

but sometimes you need to do something mindless for a little bit. ]

[ the portal they go!!! ]

Fair enough. Let's get exploring.

[ once they're there, she looks around. ]

These places have a lot more stuff than the castle did...

Really? I'd think a castle would have a thousand rooms, or something to that effect.

[ all full of shenanigans ]

Nope!

I mean, it was a big castle, but we didn't get like... all the new places each week, like how the village seemed to.

Less element of surprise, then.... for us, the new floors meant more access to information, I suppose.

Ours really depended on us actually like, talking to each other.

[ amazing, which makes it funnier considering the fact that people in grimm were actually very good at keeping things like title powers a secret and stuff. and also everyone was yan. ]

But once information got dispersed, people could go and figure out stuff.

In a way, so did ours.... it mostly came down to pooling resources when the information was out there.

[ and sending horrible meme notes ]

Seemed to work out alright for your group in the end, though, from what I've heard.

Yup. We really came down to the wire on it though, but... we managed it in the end.

That seems to be pretty common.. down to the wire.

Pretty stressful.

Breaks just do not exist, apparently, no matter where you are.

Only murder.

How is it being able to explore, though? Any better?

... it makes me glad we don't search for bodies and evidence on Fridays here. There are so many places to look. We'll miss so much.

.... Huh, yeah, I could see how that would complicate things.

We didn't get to go back to places during trial, so if we missed something...

[ f ]

.... Wow. No pressure, huh?

Yup. We missed an entire body once, but thankfully we could still look at her during trial. But since we could examine scenes on Friday, we got to do a lot of theorizing before trial which helped us go in with ideas.

Missing evidence and potentially bodies aside.... it would be nice to have something tangible to do on Fridays.

[ other than grieve. ]

... I preferred it, yeah. I liked being able to actually keep busy.

All we can really do on Fridays is swap notes and show off our curfew effects, I suppose.

[ and grieve ]

[ she nods. ]

It... sucks. Makes you think there's not much you can do.

There's a lot going on here to amplify that feeling, too.
