[ Thing is, people like to talk. They like to talk about themselves, explain the whys and wheres, spell out a story where they frame the world the way they’d like it to be. And people are liars but even a lie can reveal what’s hidden inside. The trick is to listen, to prompt, to keep people talking.

That part, Carver is very good at. And now he’s learning a fair amount about this man. Details he might need one day, that he’ll find a way to use. ]
