But it is, from her place, especially since you write to other people she knows.
Look, yes. You've sent her messages, but she wanted answers to her questions. Not just a tip of the hat in public.
This is what I see: she's read your Grim Truths and from the beginning she's understood what you were saying. Enough to write you follow up questions. Could you ask for a better reader? Has anyone else been that responsive to them? Has Harry? Not that it's a competition, but she's understood the things you're hoping he'll see that are nonsensical and wrong about the Protectorate. And she's asking you to explain how that can be.
She's asking you to explain because she needs help sorting between what she's been taught and what she sees: she was brought up to have none of those questions. She got the full indoctrination into all the DEs' lies, and she can see that it's all wrong (thanks to you and to her friends), but she needs you to answer her, and I'm going to say it again, I think she needs you to accept her as one of yours. A kindred spirit.
