[Even if Klaus does end up finding out the truth later? He's definitely not going to hold it against the guy for not spilling his guts to Klaus.
The things that he's telling Taako are, honestly, things that most people in his world just already know -- except the moon thing, and Five coming home, but those things aren't personal to him, so he can spout them off like interesting facts about himself and keep the things that he really doesn't want anyone else to know (everything else) to himself.]
Oh, sure. The politics of any public image are a real bitch.
[Not that Sir Reginald had ever had much interest in actually playing in to their games with the Umbrella Academy unless it would make them money.
He reaches over to give Taako's cheek a pat that's both genuine and at the same time, probably a little patronizing.]
And trust me, my pretty face is more than happy to find a way to pay you back for that little favor.
