"I've always felt that he meant to tell me something or perhaps to warn me of something quiet," says Piranesse. "He imbues meaning onto everything that he sees in this otherwise fairly isolated and lonely world." He believes the other also lives in the house, even though he only sees them twice a week usually. And there's another great example of this is his interaction with the birds, right? Like he's lonely and you get his loneliness and yet he is able to find companionship just in the interactions with the animals.
