[It's not a matter of trust, he's just concerned. There's no guarantee that the network extends beyond the fringes of Nesreca (going by how it's powered by Credinta's townhall, it probably doesn't), and they're in an unfamiliar world in an unfamiliar time. The Rose Cross means nothing here, they can't count on allies in the outside world to help Lavi if he does run into trouble. Allen would insist on going along if his presence in Nesreca weren't needed.]

[firmly:] Yes. If Master--[ it's spoken with the slightest note of tension, things between them are prickly at the moment ]--says anything, I'll just tell him to deal with it.

[There it is, that edge of brat, but then he sobers slightly.]

He'll have to, he already gave Tim to me.

[A bit of that prerecorded message he never told anyone about, except Link, who only overheard it because... Well. It's his job.]

[somewhat reserved:] I've thought of it.

[And he knows they would never have been as benevolent as he has been to them. It all looks grossly unfair in comparison, so he can't help but wonder if Lenalee (a pang at the mere thought of her name) has good reason to think he might value the Noah's humanity over his friends' well-being.]

If it does come to that-- I just hope Tyki and Rhode will remember how we gave them a chance.
