Not the response Harrow was expecting at all. It's one that makes more sense actually coming from Gideon than from inside her own mind or from something controlled by the Ancient—whether a hallucination or a misunderstanding from another person unfortunately mistaken as Gideon (or as Ortus, that was a fun afternoon).
"Obviously," says Harrow, loaded with just enough vitriol she's clearly still her, not taking a step backward but certainly not moving closer to Weaponized Meat either, "that did not work as planned." Did you not want a life? Where do you go when each person wants to let the other one live more than they themselves want to?
She's still hesitant, not completely sure she's dealing with a real Gideon, but the odds are rising.
