"Well, starting with the people I trust: Lark Tennant's at the top of the list. I trust him with - anything, frankly. Even the hard stuff. Especially the hard stuff." So, the things that maybe need to be done, but that will hurt or have consequences.
"After that... I mean, my warden, Cal Kestis, he'd help you if you needed something. So would Tiffany Doggett and Ford Pines. Iris Wildthyme - she and I don't always get along, but she'd be there when it counts. Buffy Summers and Luke Skywalker, too. Elijah Kamski could fix your arm if it was broken. I think he'd be as gentle about it as he could. Nikola Tesla might be able to help, too. I like Aloy, Godric, and Rita all right, although they're new. They've been decent to me, anyway. I think they'd be decent to you."
As for the other side of the coin; Steve takes a breath. "Most of the wardens I actively hate are gone," he says, lips twitching up wryly. "So that's a plus. Most of the rest are just... I don't know. Complacent. They think the way things are here is fine. Don't see a problem with it. But Betelgeuse - I wouldn't trust him as far as I could've thrown him when I was ninety pounds soaking wet. Don't give him the benefit of the doubt." Steve had, and it had crumbled within days. "Zoe Hange and Misty Day don't much like me, because I don't get along with Betelgeuse. That's how it can be - if you don't get along with someone a warden cares about, they'll shut you down and call it fair. I don't trust Jonathan Sims, either. He brought a whole mess of trouble down on the Barge, and he felt bad about it, sure, but I still don't trust him."
