[Kaveh presses his fist to his mouth, looking extremely conflicted.]

I understand your logic. [Because he does. He's not naive.] But...

[It just feels... a little bit like betrayal, to keep it from certain people. He looks at Nahida, beseeching.]

[listen they're just being kind of emo he's allowed to disagree.]

...It's okay, Kaveh. You guys get a say, too.

[He offers her a small smile, an attempt at being reassuring.]

I do mean it when I say I understand. This is dangerous information when we can't guarantee that it's false. But like Nahida said--Shenhe is from Teyvat, and... [Well. He's just really attached to Wolfwood and Vash so there's bias there. But also--] ...it seems like wherever we went on our "special mission" borrowed from her memories. I think she has a right to know.

But I do want to make sure it doesn't push her to do anything reckless. So we'll have to be careful about it.

[He nods toward Nahida.]

...I wouldn't feel comfortable keeping it from Shenhe. [And honestly the rest of Shenhe's team too but this is a more rational answer.] There are others I'd like to tell, but... I don't want to push anyone into frightened violence. If they're upset with us for keeping quiet, I'll take responsibility.

...you don't need to take responsiblity for it alone. This is a group decision.

[He nods.]

I know.

[Whether that will change his behavior if this blows up, ehhhh... but he doesn't seem to be faking it, at least.]

...we'll see what happens. Maybe the next batch of messages will be something that makes this feel less disastrous to share, in context.

We can evaluate our plans as a group as we learn more.

[god kaveh is getting so many points for being cool and noble.]

It's not just your decision. But I'm okay with telling Shenhe.

Thank you.

[...]

A while ago, Shenhe seemed a little worried that she... [Hm. How to say it.] ...might act against the wishes of her team. I asked Shenhe to tell me, if she felt as though things were getting out of her control. [If she was beginning to feel desperate enough to do a harm, basically.] So... it might be best if Nahida and I are the ones to tell her.

The wishes of her team being ... to not act?

It's more like--she made a joke about being "the one to worry about." But I got the feeling it wasn't really a joke. I don't know what they've talked about specifically.

[That sort of thing.]

[personal profile] frogzoned 2023-07-04 11:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Alright.

[ but he shrugs. ]

I don't have a problem with telling her.

Thank you.

[Kaveh is a great big baby who sucks at keeping secrets but he is also not an idiot, so. He'll settle for this.]
