[ At least he's finally beginning to parse some useful information about Cole out of all this. Having too many sources of emotion nearby "muddies the waters," and the Redshift phenomenon interferes as well, that's straightforward enough. But "he likes/craves his hurts"? Ah - of course, Joe doesn't want to be helped. And Cole says he "is Compassion", that he exists to help people... That may be his driving motivation, but perhaps it has some bearing on his abilities, as well?
Interesting. He'll have to ponder how he'd go about testing that, but right now isn't the time. ]
Well. Going forward, if you do happen to sense him close by, please let me know as soon as possible, all right? You'd be helping me to prevent him hurting anyone else.
