I think Void is saying we haven’t been transparent. I kind of assumed that since all of us share the brain, the various minds can just see/hear thoughts of the others’ minds via the brain. Clearly this is incorrect.

Being completely transparent whit the voices in our head might not be such a good idea.

We never tried to deliberately withhold information from the VOID, but the VOID and Phoebe definitely did withhold information from us.  They just worked together to hide the fact that we were infected because they thought we would panic.  Personally, I don't want them to do that again because it almost resulted in Emma's death.

The VOID isn't saying we haven't been transparent.  Instead, it is saying that hiding information from us was justified.

Being completely transparent whit the voices in our head might not be such a good idea.

I'm just asking the VOID to not try to hide the fact that we are infected in the future.  That was information that was important for us to know, but it hid that.

You zone out, staying awake as the time begins to pass more quickly for you. You keep careful, deep breaths, focusing on nothing in particular as you consciously drift in and out of reality. You feel odd at times, like there's something missing still.

You flinch a little at that, but finally respond, more to comfort yourself than the voices.

She told me that it was to keep you safe. That the more attention you paid to it, the stronger it would grow.

Is this Phoebe we’re talking to? Are we now a fourth voice in this body the rest share? Or am I missing something?

Interesting, do each of us use different fonts now since we are each a new voice?

We're... in-game entities. And this is the main character, speaking directly to us.
This is getting very weird, very fast.

Nah. Hasn't been necessary before, won't be necessary now.

How would knowing about it make it worse? If we don’t know about something the body is infected with, we won’t be able to stop it and all of us would turn into whatever the Plague is

It occurs to me... if we're separate voices now, we can speak separately. No need for +1s and whatnot-- no need to be in agreement, even. We're individuals.
