I assume you got this information from Lily.
Does Lily, strictly speaking, know that you're passing it on to me?
Not just weeds, but specifically me?
[asked casually, like the answer might be important but might not.]

[neither confirming nor denying her supposition, and he doesn't answer her question, either]
Why does that matter?

They don't like me...
There's been trust issues.

[. . . he remembers how she stumbled into Thistle crying over an incident with Lily]
It doesn't matter where the information came from. And I think I'm allowed to share it with whom I please. So. . .

...
Lily thinks they have the ability to blackmail me. Specifically, their Shepherd.

Do they?

They do not.
Not because they don't have that information, but because I refuse to be blackmailed. They can tell the entire pasture if that's what they want.
If I let them blackmail me even once, there's nothing to stop them from doing it over and over and over again.

. . . okay. Then they hold no power over you.

But, they think they do.
Remember earlier when I said I may "have" to talk about myself? That will be if they ever try to use their blackmail.

Okay. . .
[he already promised he'd hear her out, and he doesn't intend to go back on that]
But for what it's worth, I don't really want to get involved in any conflict you might have with Lily.

I don't
want
any conflict with Lily!
[she suddenly breaks out into tears]
That was the last thing I wanted!
I DELETED I'M SORRY!

[quiet for a moment, contemplating his words, before he speaks again]
Then what did you want from them?

[those tears are going to continue for a while... until she gets a hold of herself. Whatever Lily has on her, it must be bad.]
...I want to sneak into their part of the pasture and steal peaches when they aren't looking.

[. . . a small huff]
That's all?
They might appreciate it more if you asked, first.

You asked what
I
want to do, not what's convenient for Lily.
