[the truth is that it's part of the reason why she was mad at him
because if he does reckless things, it makes it harder to trust him. it ruins his reputation. it puts him in danger. they're all things that lili didn't want to care about, once she found out about mary - but she still does. because she can't kill her heart quite the same way that others can.]
I can't speak for him...
But don't just write the idea off so quickly or I'll get mad. [ . . . ] Again.
I'm not writing it off! [ the concept is, as always, mildly distressing, but it's not exactly new, the idea that people look to him for things. but. ] But it's... Shess.
[ it's not like lea doesn't know shess is a lot more competent than he is!!! ]
[ . . . okay, she'll accept that answer. she watches him a bit warily still, but she's at least less obviously mad than when this conversation started]
... I'll be watching, so don't disappoint me again.

... well, it's good for you to have an ally who can vouch for you, I guess.
