[ It's not quite what he'd meant by explaining his paranoia, but this works out well. Hell, better than he expected, considering he gets to see her hand first before giving his. He nods along as Elizabeth explains, and especially to Bigby and Luke, since he'd spoken to both of them and agrees with her assessment there. Bigby he doesn't have much to add to, but for Luke, he shrugs. ]
Yeah. Luke, not a bad kid, but sharp in... [ He thinks of how to succinctly explain this for a moment before deciding he can't, so he shakes his head ] Well, without getting too much into my work at home, he was pretty interested in it. Considering I'm working on building a robot army, that was kinda surprising? 'Specially for a kid, I mean.
[ "Kid" he says, but it's not like SOMEONE here is much older >:[ ]
The ones you've gotta watch out for in my opinion are, uh, young girls, which is kinda surprising, but they don't exactly have... Morals? Is it weird to say morals? That's what it seems like they're lacking. The Alice kid, the girl, and Shijima. Neither one of 'em is bad, especially Shijima, since she's actually pretty easily bought with food, but just with how they were talking, doesn't give me much confidence for being stuck with them. Similar concern with the nose guy. [ alfendi... ] He kinda lost it for a hot second there.
[ He pauses, then adds: ]
This one's personal, I'll admit, but I don't trust the Danse guy either. I don't exactly trust military anything, considering there's a force, uh, kinda trying to kill me. He's like them, so, yeah, transparent with my bias here, but just throwing it out there.
[ But finally, he sighs ]
The Rhys guy is... messed up too, but don't worry about that. I'm, uh, handling that one, since apparently it's personal. Apparently, because remember the time stuff we were talking? He's a bad case of it. He's from my future or whatever, and— [ His expression gets difficult here, since he's thinking more about the man Rhys said he would become, which doesn't trouble him any less. But rather than talk about that, he waves his hand dismissively to instead bring up a point that he figures will mask that concern: ] I think... we dated...? I dunno. Don't ask that guy to explain anything. He's friggin' terrible at it.
