[ imagine if they scaped. it could've been you, britt. imagine.
this is about the answer he's expecting, though; his expression softens a little, and he reaches up to take off his glasses, polishing them on his shirt. ]
I'm alright. I'm not unused to this kind of thing. [ crime drama life. ] ...You did well, today.
[it would have been so fucking funny if they'd voted for hikari's team because they thought he took himself out. god.]
...I was sort of learning as I went. [she has never been a part of a trial before. nahida enjoys new experiences, generally, but... this one? not so much.] But you've done this sort of thing before...? Does it ever get any easier?
Not quite like this. Cases can take years to solve - sometimes they never get solved at all. The people who solve them are often better equipped to do so, and even when they aren't, experts still work on the cases. So, it's a little different.

But trauma, I think, is a central thread to those experiences and to these. And that means that no, I don't think it really ever gets easier.
[time, supplies, and expertise... all things they didn't have in this case. should they feel glad that they managed to solve it even without them, nahida wonders?
(how much more difficult will it be to solve next time?)]
In a way, that's... almost a relief. This sort of thing carries a lot of weight... I'd be worried if someone was so accustomed to them that it didn't weigh on them anymore.
...yes. Though, we all have different things we find jarring. Is there any aspect of it you would prefer to work on in the future? We can prioritize your involvement there. That would probably be the most efficient use of our time and resources.

[ this answer comes immediately, calm and measured. ]
We can get use to the actions of solving it, but the sight should always be jarring.
[ which, like, considering fei du's reaction to today, is clearly something he lives by. ]
