"So, um," Victor said, turning to Sherlock and Alek. "To the researching equipment, then? Eden, would you prefer to come with us, or simply have us find you if we need an extra set of arms?" The hauling had always been his least favorite part of the grave robbing–well, besides the general gore and the overwhelming sense of dread. So really his third least favorite thing, he supposed. Still not something he was keen on doing again.

“I’ll come with you, just to be safe. Hopefully I can be of some use, even if it is very minimal.” they said, nodding to Victor. This Victor was certainly nicer than their Victor, and was a lot more pleasant to be around too.

"Alright, thank you," Victor said with a nervous smile. He was not yet entirely sure if he trusted Eden. He certainly preferred Eden to Krempe's half-decomposed brother, of course, but he could not yet shake the slight feeling of anxiety that accompanied him whenever he was by Eden. It was, however, something he would force himself to overcome, if only for the case of this Clay Man ordeal. "Here's hoping that we find something useful."

Sherlock nodded their head a little. "To the equipment, yes." They agreed, eyes flicking between Victor and Eden and wondering why Victor seemed so anxious about Eden.
