This version of her seems lucid and helpful, as long as she'a asked direct, to-the-point questions. She explains things in a straightforward way and will clarify as needed—a methodical teacher. She's also quick to criticize Laios if given the chance. She seems very aware of his flaws and weaknesses, and a bit exasperated with any points of failure.

If Marcille takes exception with this portrayal of herself to her doppleganger's face, she will get to hear exactly what Laios thinks of her in plain language: "You're one of his most important people in any world, but right now, he can't stop worrying about how you don't trust him. He felt so happy when he saw your dream, and you told him you're glad to be friends, and he understands that you need hard evidence to believe anything bad about the Winged Lion, after he helped you so much. But he can't stop thinking about how that evidence might make you feel, and whether or not he was right to try to warn you."

She'll also explain her role a little more specifically. "I'm not you. I'm not even exactly the way Laios sees you, as a person. But you're one of the smartest people he knows. When there's someone here to see it, yours is the face he puts on the part of himself that needs to methodically analyze rules and facts. The part that thinks critically and can actually be self-aware. The part that worries, the part that stops to question if he's doing the right thing or not."

She'll probably send Marcille on to pick up a couple untaken memories, if she's interested in that, or tell her that there's a fourth head out back of the big monster... "That's where he's loneliest."
