Noooooo, it takes being exposed to this hellscape long enough that you become numb to the atrocities and thus don't see anything wrong with your actions that makes someone corrupt. You realize more often than not corruption isn't a choice, it just sort of...happens.
Which is the only reason why I try to be so gentle about it with her. I KNOW she's been here a long time, I KNOW she doesn't have much of a choice other than to adapt, I just have to....voice my concerns louder when I feel like she's slipping further than necessary. I have new eyes now, you know. I imagine they give just the worst puppy dog eyes, I'm probably way more convincing like this.
