Even some who've attained Inspiration as adults are, as Max delicately phrased it, "not exactly responsible examples of humanity". Sometimes, in order to tolerate the failings of the un-Inspired, Primoris himself has to draw on his memories off what being an ordinary human was like. What must it be like to have been born with powers? The prospect frightens him. And at the same time fascinates him, though he'd never admit it except possibly to himself.
