It's apparent your dislike, even if you're unaware of it. Its all eventual. It may or may not be factual. But in the end, the circumstances remain truthful.

The Voice of Reason

"Desperately Empathizing"

#11 is one of the few clones to abstain from the typical activities that the other clones participate in. #11 is the closest representation to my internal voice.

#11 attempts frequently to convince baseline clones to abscond from the violent cycle that creates Fallen and kills the clones. She is regularly shunned and ignored by the other clones, and the ones who listen brush off her pleading. This in its own is its own cycle, #11 has to remain calm and blue. If not she can corrupt and become a Fallen Clone.

??? finds #11 fascinating, and by the rules unkillable until she smiles. Or until ??? see's them smiling.

#11 has explored a large ammount of the mindscape and still has no idea where she is half the time. It is unsurprising that she gets herself lost. Unaware that ??? is following her around. Whispering in the woods to keep them awake at night, staring into the darkness. Crying is aloud. So #11 cries frequently, holding back her internal frustrations. ???'s goal seems to want to break her.

The longer it takes for 11 to find an out that doesn't involve becoming a Fallen, the more it seems like she's going mad. And that there is no break to the cycle.

There is of course.. other 'people' who are not clones. But trusting them seems unwise for her. As interacting outside the clones could be dangerous. Smiling gets clones killed after all.<

Upon winning against 4, an early version of clones who had yet to ascend. 11 Asks one last time if they're certain about the execution. 4 is used to the cycle and questions 11 for asking in the first place. It is unclear if 11 does kill 4 as required of her.
