I always put myself in destructive situations [W5, Friday]

[hydrokinetics]

[It took time. Everything took time as it always did. It took time for them to all calm down, it took time to heal physical wounds, it took time to properly remove the evidence of obscene crimes...but in the evening they were able to gather in one place away from everyone else. It hadn't been easy coordinating everything, but it was necessary.

And so here they were. All seven of them.]

...I don't really know where to start. [His voice is tight, but determined.] But we need everybody on the same page. Who wants to go first?

But then why also lie about not knowing what the role did?

For the record, she brought up not knowing the details of the role on her own initiative.

If I recall correctly, I just mentioned that I'd heard about those roles, and she pretty much went, "Me too, but oh, I don't know anything about them!"

... Xion could just be stupid, but if I were in her shoes and just trying to protect Natalie, I wouldn't have admitted to even knowing about the role to begin with.

Sometimes it's useful to have people underestimate what you know, but that doesn't necessarily mean she's doing anything wrong. I mean, it could just be because she doesn't want the wrong people to realize she knows as much as she does.
