It was kinda strange, because this Rion guy barely had any social connection with anyone. It didn't seem natural at all. And it was really surprising. In fact I was shocked when Rion just gave away secrets. I don't know why he does that, but it just feels strange to me.cluetop wrote: ↑01 Sep 2021, 00:49 Throughout this book, I was dumbfounded at how easily Rion trusted the people around him and divulged secrets. He was quick to explain anything and everything (flash drive, powers, info about mom etc.) to each person he met whether it was Pavo, the Predators, or Psyriin. What do you guys think? Was his almost constant cooperation surprising to you?

Rion is a character who came across as very trusting and overall just good. He wouldn't want to believe bad about anyone and would naturally want to trust anyone. I think it also derived from the fact that he doesn't have a specific person to divulge his secrets to due to constantly moving, so he would tell anyone anything just for a sense of companionship and maybe acknowledgement.
The scenarios he was in would also play a role. I believe there were a few instances where it would have been necessary to divulge this information to probably keep him or others safe.
But it's also true that he was brought up as very gullible and trusting so in his own eyes he was acting perfectly rationally.

In contrast, I think Rion was trying to see the good in people. And though there are repercussions, sometimes it pays off.

This is the most likely version. As a social introvert, Rion really couldn't learn to keep secrets. In addition, he is still young and naive. Therefore, his behavior can be easily explained.
