it's also SO interesting to see already another crew member haunted by something
first Marya with the tragedy of her first encounter with Straka, and now Van not only affected by her injury in ways we can see, and see in her reactions to things but also affected physically in an unexpected way, and with what she said to Maxwell about being cursed, and there being a very real sense of her prothesis being connected to something else almost magically or magnetically and in a direction she does not want
Maxwell being cursed I would guess comes from one of the rumors, and it seemed played for jokes mostly, but not so entirely that I'm willing to let it go just yet
especially when he's supposed to stay on the ground
idk idk idk i just see montys facial expression when Van told him Comfrey had found Zood, and the mirror of that when talking about Comfrey with Olethra, and the composure but the intensity that COULD just be Montys vibe but
