"Claudius's sense of security," Magnus says. "And Luo Binghe finding a new way of doing things. He... I worry he's, like, a Loki, and that doing more terrible stuff to people will become a self-fulfilling prophecy if he, like, doesn't start to think of himself as a member of a community." Magnus loves Shen Yuan, but... he's not going to be the one to stop Luo Binghe from doing messed up stuff. "And at the time, I was working with different information. You know? I knew Claudius was hurt, but I didn't really get how badly. I thought Luo Binghe was changing for everyone. And Sagramore had said... a month or so earlier, he'd said Luo Binghe needed friends to hold him accountable. I've since gotten clarification on that," he adds, hastily. "And I'm listening to you guys, I remember now that not everything is my responsibility."
