[Ace didn't give Marco a withering look like he wanted to--rather, he stood up a bit more straight and focused a bit more. The topic wasn't making him as sleepy as he thought it would, but it was definitely making him feel a bit impatient and frustrated.]

That's the point, Marco. Among crew, these things don't stay secrets for long.

[He added immediately--] But, if you do dangerous things and don't let them know? They won't know to disagree with you if they don't even know what you're up to.

I don't mind if you drive screws in their palms or peel off their fingernails or boil them in oil, but Marco-- if you want to do things like those, you ought to be brave enough to let your crewmates know about it. Don't protect them from one thing and hurt them another way so readily.

Either way. If you're willing to talk about your plans to the lot of them, let's go ahead. Either watch them leave or keep it to yourself.
