Nobody wants to hear about their future. They think they want to know, so they ask and I see something they don't like, and then it's my fault when it happens.

[abrightboy]

I can see how people would be like that. I can see how that would make you... reluctant to engage with that power. ...Does it still work here?

[brunonono]

Well, I mean, it's--no. No! No. Or...I don't know, why would I know? We're not supposed to use our powers here because of the evil whatsits, so I haven't. Used my powers. Since I came here. So I don't know if they'd even work.

[Smooooth.]

Bruno, I'm not the thought police.

[Bruno leans backward slightly.]

Okay? Okay! But I don't...I'm not feeding it. The thing. Which is fine because I don't want to have any visions anyway.

[abrightboy]

Do you know which thing it is? Has it made itself known to you?

[brunonono]

Not so much in...words. With a name or anything.

It wants me to know things about people. Things they're not going to want me to know.

[abrightboy]

And knowing their future gives you that for the thing?

[brunonono]

Yeah. Yeah, I think it would. People...people back home thought I only saw bad things. I think if I had visions here that might be true now.

[abrightboy]

Do you have to do something to see your visions or... do they just come on their own?

[brunonono]

They used to just happen when I was little, but I got it under control. There's a whole...there's things I do when I want one, and that makes it easier to stop it when I don't.

[abrightboy]

Is that how you're keeping from feeding the Entity?

[brunonono]

Yeah. Yeah, I just--I went ten years without a vision back home. I can just keep that up here, as long as I need to.

[abrightboy]

The Entities didn't exist in your home, did they? Why did you go so long?

[brunonono]

Oh, right--it's because that's when I was living in the walls.

[abrightboy]

...Living in the walls?
