You call their not being trapped in whatever the fuck was happening to them an illusion?
You want an illusion, I can do that, literally or figuratively. Literally every friendship I can remember before I got here was that - an illusion borne of my powers.
Telling someone that ten weeks have gone by with no one having to kill anything worse than a giant bird or carnivorous deer, when they've been trapped in a place where it was a constant? That. Isn't. A fucking illusion.
And I'm not just talking semantically. I'm talking that what he's doing is a significant comfort to those trapped in a functional warzone. It's telling them "they're safer here". Maybe not safe. But safer.
