[She knows the walk to Baldr, but it's weird to see it slowly being covered in ice. She worries about the animals in the petting zoo, unsure of what would happen to them. She's been practicing her power nearly every day with them and to lose that... to think that she's used them for that only to have them turn to little petting zoocicles... it makes her upset for a moment.
At some point during the walk, Erica shifts the pillowcase of things over to her other hand and she reaches to hold onto Isaac's hand. It's not PDA or anything like that, but the quiet gets to her and she knows that the small gesture is better than any reassuring words.]
[The rest of the trip goes pretty much in silence, with both of them wrapped up in their own concerns. Isaac is surprised when Erica reaches out to touch him, but he doesn't pull away. After a moment, his fingers slip against hers and he's thankful for what little reassurance this offers.
Everything is going to be okay, somehow. They'll make it through this intact.]
