[ their caginess bothers him, too. Having something to hide is the only real reason to act that way, as far as he's concerned. Bruno is not inherently distrustful - far from it.

Their reason for showing up now is us, supposedly. The ones I spoke to said that this dead thing we're all living in laid those eggs.
