[Now that is simultaneously an easy and difficult question. Nick answers the easy part readily.]
I know I can trust you to do what you believe is right, Curufin, even if I don't agree with it. You put a lot of passion into whatever you do, and have tried to help others for as long as I've known you. You've got a good heart, and you put yourself out there for other people. I can't help but respect that.
[But -- and there always is one --]
But it's no secret I don't have the same respect for some of the folks you associate with. And while you trust them, I don't. I don't trust them with what information they might get from you, either. And I don't believe you'd give them anything willingly, but with the way things work around here, with how the gods can turn us against each other, send us into people's dreams, make us divulge our deepest secrets...
[He trails off, but he's sure Curufin gets the picture.]
