[ so extremely valid of her ]

We always go in expecting something horrible to happen. But it reversing like that was... different. Worse than usual, somehow.

[ he will sit with her to pet the cats. ]

...I'm just tired, I think. Glad it's over, I guess? As long as we really do get everyone back tomorrow, anyway.

[sacredpath]

Yes. I think in many ways, that was the ugliest one yet.

[petting a cat.]

I hope it's true. But we need to be prepared to defend ourselves.

[outdistanced]

Yeah, I definitely agree with that.

...From what? The entity? I thought they said they had it trapped already.

[sacredpath]

They do say so, but I still worry. Mary, at least, doesn't strike me as someone who thinks they have been defeated.

[outdistanced]

She never struck me as the type of person to care even if she was defeated.

[sacredpath]

True, and I think she knows she isn't in for any punishment she isn't willing to endure. Even so, I don't know if it's worth getting comfortable that it is over.

[outdistanced]

Did they ever even say what they'd do with her, after this?

[ imagine if they just leave her in that cell forever ]

...No, you're right. It's smarter not to, just in case something else goes wrong.
