Did it now? He was good enough at hiding it that I thought my constant flood of messages amused him more than anything. It always seemed to me that he liked the attention. Really, once I figured out what sort of role our thief had in this whole thing, I was hoping that he would at least be kind of open to the possibility of cooperating with me.
Though I guess his interests lie more in keeping people here against their will than spoiling them until they actually want to stay. I was talking to Hawk about this right after everyone else came back - I'd take the Resarci kid over this guy any time.
[He sort of hums quietly, taking a drawn-out drink of his wine. Nathan being non-human would've surprised the hell out of him a little over a year ago, but now it has no impact. With everything else he's experienced in this place, that shit seems pretty normal.]
To be honest, I hadn't put much thought into what will happen to me once this has all ended. Well, I had - but I had also completely misunderstood exactly how all of this worked. I thought that I'd be able to just live here and have control over everything, including the thing that moves people to and from here, so that I could turn it into a kind of sanctuary. Speaking of which...
[He couldn't look much guiltier if he was making a conscious effort to do so.]
After Proctor was killed and I had suspected that you were as well, I... Sort of lifted the restriction on Lab 3. And it completely invalidated all of what I thought I knew about this place.
I made some guesses, though. It was really the pictures of all of us that I was supposed to be protecting, wasn't it?
