Loren sighed, and rubbed his temples. "You can worry all you like, but you'll need to start trusting someone to take care of themselves eventually, else you're going to be very lonely because you've driven everyone you care about away." Obviously he understood the hypocrisy of that, and he gave Jigano a chagrined and apologetic smile. "Take it from someone who knows." The healer's voice came out quietly, and he couldn't help the shame that bubbled up within him.
Jigano, I understand where you're coming from, but you don't understand how things work in Halo. He spread his arms. The people here are fiercely independent, even more so than the residents of the Hollowed Ground. My attendance in Zariah's Academy will do absolutely nothing to bolster their opinion of her, I can assure you of that. Then he shrugged. I do think making a show of good faith with Zariah will ingratiate me with my brother and the rest of the council, yes. His thoughts were certain on that much.
However, he had to laugh at the bard's next suggestion. People know and like me better than Zariah. And Neron wouldn't interfere in that way, nor would Zariah allow me to do so. Don't worry, though, I already told all her students my door is always open if they get injured during a class. The Launceleyn's mind was quite amused.

Never judge a book by its cover.
