This was going precisely as their last meeting. With no one on the same page, and only a small percentage of them caring. Espio was certainly more disconnected from them than before, and that was rather odd, even for him. She really had to talk to Marco about the power that hugs do and do not have.

During this entire time, Grell had been silent, which is not her style at all. Observing and giving her opinion was her specialty, but as with Toby, things were not that easy.

So she left to follow after Espio, glancing to Marco and giving him a small salute as she passed by. She'll see what she could do.
