It is a great technique when approaching a potentially nuclear conversation. Plop the topic right there on the table, brutal black and white – but stay with relaxed body language, have your tone be non-judgmental and non-demanding, and continue with easygoing yet on-topic conversation. Help the other party understand it’s not an attack, and while they will be understandably wary, much progress can be made.
Contact established!

It helped that Aileana started by revealing herself. It’s much better than “you have a secret and we know what it is.”
PS or at least to trust House Caladharas.
Having something major in common is huge and non-judgemental. It also gives them both some security.
