Re: Hallway: Hels & Gwen
So it's about personal secrets, not about achieving a desired and external goal. [She considered.] I don't think I've ever had a secret that wasn't created by some external need. [Gwen didn't hide who she was. She didn't lie to keep people from learning things about her, or to achieve her own ends. Her untruths were motivated by something, even if they were sometimes unfortunately and fallibly illogical. But she understood what Helena was saying. Jason, for example, was comprised of falsehoods maintained as superglue.]
It changed him on a genetic level. The markers in his blood are unmistakeable. He's more than he was before. It's more extensive than any mutation I've encountered thus far.
[Gwen considered the question about Harry and any conversations that hadn't ended badly.] No. All of his conversations, to my knowledge, have totally sucked balls. [She smiled.] I tried to get a couple of people to talk to him that weren't personally involved with him, or with any of us, but I think those dialogs went bad too.
