there's a second of silence, like he's debating what the hell she just asked him, but then he quickly settles on the most probable option based on context. ]
He's part of Will's gang, so. However dodgy you think he is, this fella's about the same.
[ Better than some of the more negative alternatives, she thinks. She's seen Will dodgy about some things and he's a terrible liar, but she'll take that over an outright hostile toward Fidelio and Basilio. She'd taken pretty good measure of him, too, enough that she can pack that away and ask about another important thing.
[ Three other indirect variations of what she's trying to get across cross her mind. One even includes bread and where it's buttered, which... oh, she could go for some homemade bread right about now. With honey butter! ]
I wouldn't betray you to some guy from Euchronia who just got here even if he is Will's friend. He doesn't have a clue I know you, Bas, or Will let alone anything about your world. Hell, for all I knew at the time, he could've been some random guy not even from the same time or some sworn enemy of yours out for blood.

Is the man just standin' there right now while you're talkin' with me?

[ The look she gives him. ]
I left him safe and sound a little while ago.
no subject
also there are a few things he will give her credit for, but not being overbearing or trapping people in annoying interactions is not one of them. ]
How the hell would I know? It sounded like you still had him in your sights the way you were talkin'.
no subject
I asked you if he was straight, not the other way around.
