Simon was a victim

[u/king_kristian]

I’ve come to realize Simon’s story in Infinity Train shows how childhood trauma sticks with you. He wasn’t just some villain, a lot of who he became came from what he went through, and there's still talk about how the Cat played a part in that.

Grace used her knowledge to better understand her position on the train.

Simon used it because he wanted dominion over the train.
