Same problem with Li:
The MC acts like an idiot.
WHY can't I choose to talk to them? 😭
Not only is it what I'd prefer to do, but it's also the smartest thing you CAN do. (If you actually -want- to escape, pretending to be okay with it is obviously smarter. I wouldn't need to pretend, personally. But again: What the MC does is stupid.)
Your reactions are just so weird and unnatural.
(...for me... I guess maybe normal people act that way.
...this is why I lost all faith in the intelligence of humans.)
