	|QuestionText=If anti-gen members are talked to/interrogated (by someone with ruminantia lie-detection), will they confirm that they have no involvement in the katalyth incursion and attacks? <br><br>Adding on to [https://kelesis.dreamwidth.org/15557.html?thread=14447301#cmt14447301 the answer] about creating a dream bubble of the reconsciousness, verso can create light producing things from chroma, if he makes one in a dream bubble, will there be anything to see? if he uses perissodactyla shape-shifting to take on the <em>form</em> of what they are so afraid of/claim they were ignorant of, will that produce anything?

    |AnswerText=Anti-Gen members will be firm (if slightly shocked over the accusation) about having not placed any Katalyth, or attacked any Augmented. Their phrasing is particular, and technically true- that they, <i>personally</i> are doing neither of these things.<br><br>...Which is indeed very suspicious and not wholly honest. They know what's going on (if not all to the same degree); they're certainly involved with it, but they're still <i>really</i> focused on Patho-Gen being the true culprit. If it weren't for Patho-Gen, none of this would be happening.<br><br>Anti-Gen themselves won't admit to anything, even if attacked. (Nor will they turn hostile, but will defend themselves/try to talk any aggressor into leaving.) They'll reiterate that they want what's best for Karteria and the Augmented. That <i>is</i> still true, by whatever personal definition they're using. <br><br>As for Perissodactyla shape-shifting inside the patient dreams... it's hard to give what they're afraid of a concrete <i>shape</i>. It's something disease-ridden and destitute; it's years of being underground, starving and furious and blind; it's being observed from every angle, cut apart and pieced back together, thoughts joined with a myriad of other voices; it's feeding blood to a wolf and knowing that it will obey you hereafter; it's to see everything that was done to lead to this point, and to <b>know</b> that it's hopeless. That it was hopeless centuries ago, and they're just now catching up. <br><br>Being that this is what the patients are presently experiencing, they won't react to having more of it inside the dream bubble.
