[Narrowed eyes, a stricken posture— Ren clearly did not expect to be confronted with her name, nor the accusation he thought he'd so narrowly avoided earlier being brought back to the forefront of their conversation.

He may also be lying.]

During our first meeting I chose to withhold the name and description of my informant in the hopes of protecting her from any...loyalist resentment. [After all, Ren's own approach at the time had been acute and invested, his attention sharply focused on determining whether or not Thrawn had truly met the woman.] Imagine my surprise when I was instead met with curt elusiveness on your part during subsequent inquiries as to your relationship with her, particularly when you were so helpfully forthcoming with the names of those in the Resistance already situated here.

[He meets that narrowed stare, watching to see if Ren might understand exactly he's revealed before Thrawn opts to show his full hand.]

An evasiveness that I now have noted only seems to surface when I broach topics that you do not wish to discuss in detail.
