[she nods. eyes on the prize, indeed - they should definitely do their best this time.

although... her expression falls and she looks down at the ground.]


...there are not many of us left who are the "murder type," anyway. We shall have to consider people no matter how unlikely we believe they are to kill.

Think you're losing it.... but your heart's in the right place.

[ to magnus, re: the mysterious mentor metaphors!!! ]

Considering what's apparently at stake.... we need to follow the evidence, nor our hearts, for this one.

[ ... ]

Poor Taako, though. Can't imagine he'll be happy about the digging compulsions.

...but we followed the evidence last time, did we not?

[and it steered them wrong :c which she hates]

Perhaps if Taako goes somewhere there is nothing to dig through, it will be easier?

Think we'll have to do a better job of looking at it, too. There's a lot we didn't -- and still don't know.

[ since by the end, we didn't even know what we were looking at... ]

That's a shame.

I wonder if... perhaps, rather than simply looking at what there is, and theorizing once we hear about it, it might be worth attempting to recreate some of the evidence when we investigate.

[she gestures at the drag marks]

For example, if we are able to create marks like this in the sand tomorrow, we will have a much more concrete idea of how they were left, will we not?

Good idea. We do need to better examine the evidence, at least... try to piece it together.

[ phoenix nods to magnus. ]

We can't mess around.

I do not think any of us will forgive ourselves if we mess up again.

[she knows she won't!!]

We will have to make the most of the time we have.
