I think they maybe had to do a death saving throw once in all of Balance?

I think there were two death saving throws in Balance, but I'm pretty sure neither got as far as this one. I was pretty worried about Zoox, there!

Also, I love Skittles and I'd give my life for him, and I need him to be in every episode, wielding his double knives and making bubble noises.

And the less said about feet farts, the better.

I wonder if Griffin did any prep for if the squad had taken the Dreams of Deborah and run.

Could they have actually run anywhere? The city/arcology is pretty much it, yeah? I'm fuzzy on the timelapse from end of prologue to start of main arc, but it doesn't seem too long. I'm guessing we'll find there are small pirate anchorages/hideouts and prooobably some Secret Dungeons but I didn't think there were other known settlements.

Can't figure out what the character motivation would've been, either.

I'd guess that Homonyne probably has some sort of undersea outpost or something by now, just to keep tabs on Founders' Wake, but don't know what there'd be beyond that. We're at best a generation removed from The Quiet Year, right?

I think it's 25 or 30 years. I kind of wish it was longer because then all the fish hybrid people that fan artists are drawing would make sense. I like the fish hybrid people.

Well the water is magic isn't it
