As soon as Peridot mentions Lapis, Strange can't help but frown. He stays quiet for a moment or two before shaking his head.

"I don't think that's a good idea. One, if Ignatius goes, then I'm going with him. Both of us are suspicious enough already and I'm certain they're expecting us to go to the barrens in the first place. And second, I don't trust Lapis anywhere near him."

Strange is calm yet insistent about this point.
