Miel looks like she knows something just happened.

She looks like she knows what happened and isn’t buying this two person section bullshit

Well obviously she knows something happened.  This is supposed to be Adrian telling a story about what happened to his mother in college.  He had to have heard it from them.

You'd think that, but it doesn't quite feel that way... but I guess this explains why Miel was able to pass the story along to Adrian that she was being mind controlled. The perspective in SJI is sometimes weird. It's third-person, but oftentimes we know less about what's going on than the characters in the scene.

With all the mind control flying around, any scene without a controller, currently Adrian, Jakob, Yves, and Sawyer, that isn’t specifically from the controller’s perspective can be assumed to be told by an unreliable narrator.

I’m discovering this in my own writing as I’m closing I on 80k words is my own MC story. Anyone who is mind controlled is automatically unreliable.
