They are worried about you, which means that you were hurt. I find it confusing when I am told one thing - that we should not keep secrets and it is not a waste of time to care for one's friends - and shown another. Which am I to take as true?

It sounds horrific because it looks like a person but isn't them. I do not like the idea of a version of myself with no mind.

[ Linhardt's words are enough cause for Hilda to let out a groan in the silence of her room, prompting the leosylph slumbering on her bed with her to stir. ]

I don't know how I feel about creating...half people. It seems like something the Agarthans would do.

But not much of a difference in meaning or purpose. Only in semantics.

I'm surprised that nobody has. I had the thought of creating Caspar, but the more I thought of it, the more repellant I found the idea. It's less troublesome if the creature or person being made is not meant to replicate someone. It sounds as though Waffle and Mogwry are their own creatures.

You're not going to convince me. Saying the same thing over and over doesn't work on me. If it did, I would agree with Edelgard all of the time.

I do miss him. It's surprisingly hard to keep track of time without him nagging me to eat.

Interesting in what way? Is there a 'real' Mogwry?

You could also not do that. That is an option. The cooks do not mind that I take food from the pantry.

Is Waffle like you? Maybe the creator of a creature lends some of themselves to what they create.

I eat most days.

Does he eat sugar and nuzzle you and then bite you when your back is turned? Is he easily offended?

I am intelligent, yes.

[This is the last thing Linhardt has to say. In a fit of completely mature behavior, he stops paying attention to the network after this message.]
