If we're talking trust as some type of absolute, no. You'll need to apply some specifics on what I'm trusting them about, or with.

[ Specifics. That means thinking about what he means and putting it into simple terms--not his favorite. It takes him a while. ]

do you think they can get the job done?
if you needed help, you have people that would back you up? or that would come back for you?

I can't judge what the relevant skill sets are to answer that. Generalising to adaptability and resilience, there's a few I'd prefer to leave behind, a few I'd prefer to be taking with us, but what the fuck would I know? Someone needing to play eye surgeon in someone else's dream wasn't a predictable objective. We could climb down there and find we need to win a fucking hotdog eating contest for this thing, and I told a three times world champion to stay home.

[More irritated about the circumstances than he should be sharing with Quentin, but he'd asked.]

I'm going as the help. If someone has to bail me out, then we're definitely in trouble.

[ Maybe he shouldn't be sharing, but the crass frankness feels good. Like something real. Quentin preens from it. ]

who do you wish you had with you? who are you worried about?
