Will we somehow earn her respect if we keep playing the dumb fool or try to corce her with vague threats we never make good on? Absolutely not.
How many billions of iterations did it take Daydream to finally realize that her actions have far-reaching consequences? And even then she was not willing to actually reconsider her position until someone confronted her directly (thank God for Emily)
The way i see it, right-now Alice is still at a moment in time where she is still unsure about the consequences. She is still riding off the high of getting away with what she did. She needs to be brought down to earth.
If anyone else knows of a more tactful way we can word Alice's chastisement, please let me know.
Keeping quiet about someone's misdeeds never solves anything. Please keep that in mind.
I know that as human beings our minds can be prone to shutting down for our own protection when faced with insurmountable evil, but for the sake of the characters of this story which we are so invested in, we need to be strong, and we need to behave more firmly in our interaction with Alice.
tiptoeing around with alice is exactly what we should do, don't get too trigger happy just now, think about this in the long run, pissing her off right now will just make her cooperate less.
Also, think about this, this is Alice, not Daydream, Alice is not in DD's situation she's not stuck in an event horizon desperate to find a way to save her brother, Emily could make her see the error of her ways by making her put the well being of Derrick above all else, it took her around 8799 iterations of the construct to realize that, this alice doesn't know any better.
Trust us on this ok, In time Alice will realize what she did was wrong, and we could do so in various ways, like maybe making derrick feel bad?, then alice will feel guilty.
