Slick's right there with Sansa on the network lurking, everybody here is do unconcerned with communications security and he is not going to get arrested for treason again just because he didn't cover his tracks thoroughly enough!
Uh.
On that note, he's not a master manipulator, but he's one in-training, and still failing occasionally. They could compare notes!
These people are too trusting! It's almost like they're main characters and from series that don't constantly dump misery on them or something!
He definitely needs a checklist, ngl. His cover in Taravast is as a Decorated War Hero, which he's 100% using to manipulate people and get fellow off-worlders out of trouble, though he's in over his head when it comes to actual politics.
Oh oh also a thing--since Slick has met Dany now and he's been pestering everybody for vocabulary in their home languages--if he hears Sansa speaking the Common Tongue, he'll know she's from at least the same postal code as Dany. He might be able to manage a few basic words or phrases he's memorized without the aid of the translator, though not much more than that.
Sansa and Dany might actually have different dialects because of growing up in different countries, but the common tongue is absolutely a connecting factor.
Seeing him try to speak it would be adorable, I want this.
He's asking everybody he meets for some really basic vocabulary, some of which usually carries over between dialects which i've checked, because i'm a horrible linguistics gremlin
Be prepared to hear an accent that has never been heard in Westeros: Space Kiwi.
