No, Mono certainly had not experienced such a thing. Innocence was not something kids kept for long in his world.
The question gets an uncertain little shrug. “I dunno… I just didn’t know there were more kinds with different kinds of powers. There’s a lot of weird powers in my world, and I thought maybe there’d be things similar enough that I could figure out how it all works. The man in the hat has powers like… someone else… and I sometimes think if I can figure him out, I can figure it all out.” He rambled a little, waving his hands a bit as he tried to say things in a way that didn’t sound entirely obvious. Mono didn’t know Harry well enough for that, not like he knew Illyana… But the guy clearly knew stuff, and that might be important.
“There’s a lot of things I don’t understand about, and I dunno how long I’m gonna be here for… So I kinda try to ask when I don’t know something, while I got the chance?”
