I hope I never have to lie to you, Dux, but...well, I suppose I should say that that's not the same thing as there being things I don't tell you. But I shouldn't want to keep something from you that would harm you by not knowing, what? Does that make sense?
I say, it's rather like the difference between a white lie and a thumper, if you follow me.
I've not made it secret that I've made several other friends, though. And I've not made it secret that some of my other friends also knew what I told you back in April, over hols. It stands to reason that they might also entrust confidences to me that I'm not at liberty to share, what? But I hope you'll be able to learn them for yourself, soon enough. I can't say with any certainty when, though.
Why should he owe me? I don't follow.
And no, I don't think you so unnatural as to want anything to do with matricide, what? I only hope you don't hate me for saying I shan't hesitate if I get the chance. But I promise you I know how dangerous a task it would be and I shan't go looking for the opportunity, what?
