[He looks noncommittal when Eliot starts offering life advice, though his expression tips a little sardonically. Sure. Yeah. Brave new world and all.]
Shame it still has such people in it.
[You know the kind. The kind that need watching, and maybe doing something about. He's read the Tempest, he knows how that goes. (Or should they talk dystopias, maybe that's more applicable.)
It's all tipping a little close to home, second chances and all, and he's been happy to keep this all metaphorical. All implications and plausibly deniable answers. But here, Eliot leaves room for him to actually offer up something solid. He considers it for a moment, clearly filing Eilot Spencer away and deciding if he wants to bother being honest in return, but what the hell. He gives an inch.]
