Not sure if it’s mostly a Disney World thing or not, but there are free buses available throughout the day to/from their hotels. At park close, there are often long, long lines of guests waiting their turn to board so they can get back to their rooms. In line, kids fall asleep in their strollers/parents’ arms after a long day, and exhausted parents like Jason here struggle to fold up the strollers so they can board when it’s finally their turn. I always feel bad for the parents who have a hard time when we allll just want to get back to the hotels to sleep haha.

For whatever reason, it was one of the first things that came to mind when I started my trip, because it’s just a very uniquely parent thing to see at the parks, and I love Jalim as parents. Darn strollers!

Sorry to pick on you again, Jason! But they probably had a long and fun day together

Here comes the blah blah blah! ✨ Clarice appreciation ✨ because sometimes it just feels nice to get thoughts out

I can understand how she might be off-putting; she’s got an attitude about her, a wry sense of humor. It also seems like she’s very rude to Rachel for no reason, but she’s been working with Eric for a while and would have gotten a very one-sided view of Rachel as a result. It just makes sense to me that she’d already have some preconceived idea in her head. She’s not at all surprised by the reveal that Rachel is cheating on her boss, and is able to guess she’s cheating with Nick instantly. Then, add Rachel’s own subordinates calling her “Queen Bitch” on top of it all and I think Clarice felt justified putting up some preliminary defenses for Mrs. King.

But then, of course, all of that can be challenged or reinforced in “Bloodbath,” with Rachel potentially becoming Clarice’s strongest advocate in the temple and the two actively saving one another’s lives. They complement some of the game’s themes of loyalty and unlikely alliances (with options to help/abandon, just like Kurum & Balathu and Jason & Salim). 

But she’s my tragic gorl :[

Also, can you imagine choosing to stay behind in the dark caverns where there are horrible monsters to die alone, sick and hurting? GahhH

Here’s a before/after gif for fun:
