"That's understandable."

Of course, there's something... different to how Dylan feels. Something more than merely a captain missing his ship. Of course, that he's keeping to himself.

"Betazoids don't lie." He says, continuing. "We don't hide things from each other. What's the point, when the people you spend the most time with can read you like an open book." He looks back up at Dylan. "Same with the Trill. If it seems like we're hiding something from you, it's simply because it never occured to us that you should know."

A key example is the symbiotes. Not many Federation citizens know of that aspect of Trill culture... Not due to them wanting it hidden, but because no-one asked.

"Humans... are different, of course. You like to have things kept private, a sense of ownership over certain things. Which is, of course, completely understandable." He smiles. "I've lived among humans for a while, captain, and I'd like you to know that your feelings are safe with me."
