You are his blood, true. I? Am his family. I have been here for him. Circumstances dictated your parting and I understand this, respect our choice, and know you did the best you could with the situation at hand. But I would rather you not dismiss my knowledge of his character so blithely. If I say, 'he will be more upset at me for keeping this from him than at you', you say 'oh of course, Zevran'.
