Though he is good at compartmentalizing and rationalizing, so I wonder if it could still work with the modified scenario I proposed in the comment to Hwyla, where he had only "started making contact" with the werewolf contingent in VoldWar I and had let slip a few identifying details (not names, just "my friend mentioned that they'd been talking to someone who worked at ___ and then wouldn't say why? I don't know, maybe they're involved?"). Then he could tell himself he hadn't really done anything, so it's not like it was reasonable to suspect him. Mostly he'd just had a drink with a fellow werewolf and talk about how transforming hurt but running through the forest was fun, and what's wrong with that?

Still a stretch, I admit, but maybe?
