Hi i thought of Au when Claire is Expose to the grave sand i feel Like it Should happen in Season 1 before Jim Stole Angor ring so Strickler would Poisson her to give Jim so Trouble.
so i ready for your ideas
i thought of S1 because Strickler is the only one we know who have Accuses to it i thought of it ever since i saw Bad Coffee for the first time
Hi! That's such a fun idea - even more so because Claire of that period of time is heavily stressed (she desperately wants to save her brother but cannot do a thing) which can lead to some interesting developments.
I'd say Claire probably gets a bigger dose of the gravesand than Jim in Season 3 (closer to the one Uhl, Lawrence and Janeth got in Bad Coffee). After all, Strickler goes for some efficient distraction.
So, we get an absolutely feral Claire, armed by shadowstaff. She still can tell that Jim and Toby are on her side (kinda), but freeing Enrique is her main priority and she doesn't care about waiting for longer. Claire won't try to force Jim to hurry up though (because she still cares about him even under the gravesand influence). However, she has no problem attempting to get the amulet from Jim and using it as a key to open the passage into the Darklands (she plans to venture there alone).
Jim has a huge trouble fighting Claire, both because she doesn't hold back at all and because he doesn't want to harm her. It doesn't make it easier that with the shadow portals Claire has no problem applying a hit-and-run tactics. She gets the amulet, so the second round involves not letting her come anywhere close to the Killahead Bridge, getting the amulet back and capturing Claire while trying to get her back to her senses.
Jim manages to get through to her, promising to return Enrique to Claire, but she tells him she wants to come along as well, confessing that she is more annoyed with herself for not managing to protect her brother and never blamed Jim.
