"Fear." She doesn't even have to think to answer that.

"He seemed stupid enough on the subject that I was almost certain he wasn't a threat, but I've played that role before. Feign ignorance and no one will know what you're capable of." She held the teacup a little tighter in her hands, lips pressed together in a thin line. "So I couldn't be sure. If he wasn't as thick as he seemed, and I charged him with sodomy, he could have accused David, too, and then it would be my fault my brother ever faced a court martial for it."

...None of which should have ever been breathed to another soul, and Faith blanches a little for the admission. A dangerous thing, not being able to hold her silence.
