{{quote|'''Pellaeon''': "Then he's chosen someone else," Pellaeon finished, the words a sharp ache in his heart. "And there can be only a very few reasons why he would do that."
'''Second''': * firmly* "It can't be position. You ''are'' Supreme Commander, after all. And it certainly can't be competence. What's left?"
'''Pellaeon''': "Vision, perhaps." [Pellaeon is trying to negotiate a [[Peace Conference|peace treaty]] with the New Republic, which Thrawn might or might not have approved of. But why not just tell him to call it off? Is this where Thrawn wants him, about to talk to the New Republic?] * pained* "Or else simply out of his way. Where I can't interfere with whatever he's planning."<br />
'''Second''': * lengthy pause, uncertain voice* "I don't believe he would do that to you, sir. Not after all you went through together."<br />
'''Pellaeon''': "You don't believe that any more than I do." * Quietly* Thrawn wasn't human, you know, no matter how human he might have looked. He was an alien, with alien thoughts and purposes and agendas. [[Am I Just a Toy to You?|Perhaps I was never more to him than just one more tool he could use in reaching his goal.]]"<br />
'''Second''': * hesitates, reaches out and touches Pellaeon's arm* "It's been a long road, sir. Long and hard and discouraging. For all of us, but mostly for you. If there's anything I can do..." }}
* Then there's ''[[Outbound Flight]]'', set before the Clone Wars and featuring a much younger Thrawn and three Corellian traders he's hosting as captives/guests. One flatly dislikes him and tends to be ignored. One idolizes him from almost the moment she meets him. One is the viewpoint character. Thrawn likes the viewpoint character; he's curious, observes everything, is generally pleased and amused by this curiosity and quick learning and the fact that the viewpoint character can be nudged into [[Sherlock Scan|picking up on some of the things Thrawn picks up on]]. Okay, that's not a lot, considering, but there's this exchange.
