Peonia is right on that front and Jim concedes gracefully. He hasn't spent an awful lot of time with anyone form the Durant family, but of those ha has, Viatorus is the one the captain's most closely acquainted with.
Her breach into his personal space is met with a smile that has a bit more of an edge to it. Conspiratorial and knowing.
"That depends on if I'm on record when I answer, doesn't it?"
It hardly surprises Jim to learn that Peonia is flippant about pulling the wool over her own loved ones to 'get results'. Still, there's a sting he has to hide at treating his own crew so callously. Not that she's wrong, exactly.
Lying for their best interest is something he's done before, but he's not exactly proud of it. He hid the Nexus from them for such a long time, even.
