He doesn't press. He's acquainted with Siebren but doesn't really know him personally; he's not entitled to the man's privacy.

"But he's... angry. Even when he's not angry, he's angry. You can..." He gestures with his free hand, that way he does when he's grasping for something that he's having trouble or hesitant to articulate. "You can tell," he says finally. He lets the hand fall.
"He'll probably be a difficult student as well as diligent," is his concluding assessment.
