[Maybe because Harrow is nice to Pride, did you ever consider that?? Or maybe they vibe because they're both tiny and mean.]
. . . I know that in certain cases, what has been done to them is painful. It is certainly a good thing, if we can bring them back to what they were before.
I'm not sure the Avatars know themselves what our purpose here is, but it is likely to help them in some way with their "unfinished business." Ah, and - I think there is also some reason to believe there is a higher authority, keeping tabs on the Avatars themselves and enforcing their rules.
. . . To be more clear, when I say I think, there is some evidence I'm aware of that strongly suggests it. But I've been asked not to share too broadly the evidence itself, as it may bring too much scrutiny onto the Avatars.
Understood. [ ohhhh he WANTS TO KNOW but that's fine. ] I'm glad the prediction wasn't off, then. [ it did feel sort of obvious, and... the blatant denial of such a thing by some of the avatars only made it feel more suspicious. ]
Mm. I would. . . like to help them. But I also think we must be cautious, with what they say. If they are following rules set by a third party [The secret Mastermind, the Avatar of Cringe] then we can't know if their answers are genuine or if they are following some sort of requirement.
Best to take things with a grain of salt. [ he's been doing so since the beginning. ] I'll try and see what I can find out on my own, too. Carefully, of course.
Yes. And we ought to continue exploring. Even the ones where you look at an Avatar's memory. . . I don't believe Pride would have been willing to tell me as much as he did if I hadn't come to understand him to some degree.
. . . Please tell me if you ever see or hear anything else of that little girl, won't you?
...I wonder if the group this week saw memories of an Avatar. I didn't get the chance to ask, but we didn't - ours belonged to White. [ he was busy yesterday for obvious reasons, but...
if there's a pattern to it - seems likely. ] But, I'm in agreement, and... I will.

anyway. there's a brief, harder furrow to his brow at that, though it smooths over quickly. ]
I feel the same. [ about a higher power, anyway. ] There are more things out of their control than people seem to believe.
