We're still people, aren't we?

And obviously he's not above slumming it with us when it's convenient.

[It was possible to be cold enough for him to hide with monsters, certainly, especially if he viewed them as inhuman, but most people weren't that detached.

Natasha knew better than most people how rare that talent was.]

At least it explains why he has to put it in context like that.

i'd be lying if i said i wasn't surprised by that either
convenient or not

[...]
xion's said he saved her life once
can't help but be suspicious he did it to get in a monster's good graces for later
not because he's truly sympathetic

[Stupid to try to convince all monsters - but one or two? That's doable.]

[Not that it doesn't have its own hazards, and he does seem to be on the outs with the rest of his group - that'd take a pretty good act if it was a lie. Stocke can't decide which conclusion to lean toward.]

It's possible.

Either that, or his position has evolved since then. I suppose that's another possibility.

Either way.

There's a lot of good reasons not to trust him. And to keep an eye out for him to show up again.
