[Private to Corbin]

So... how about convincing Hector to visit you for the night sometime? So I can talk to Lacroix without him worrying that Hector's going to walk in on him.

It's a win-win for everyone, right? No harm done. But Lacroix seems to think that Hector lacks... initiative? sometimes, so maybe it'd be a good idea for you to ask him.

Hector comes over when he wants to, or goes out when he wants to; so I do see him from time to time.

Exactly why are we having a discussion about this in the first place?
I told you that kid lacks any ability to shut up.

Either way, you do realize that it makes me an accomplice to the situation if I ask Hector to do anything with the motive of knowing you just want a chance to call the kid without him being there to catch him talking to you.

We're having this conversation because we both want the same thing, so we should help each other to get it. Right?

Hector knows Lacroix talks to his friends on the phone -- I mean, he has to if he looks at the minutes on the bill. He seems okay with that, right? He hasn't banned Lacroix from using the phone or anything. But... he doesn't know what we talk about.

I don't recall saying I wanted to magnanimously help the kid maintain a social life, no.

Or Hector doesn't have the time, or desire, to go through every since phone record; I'm guessing the latter.
So you want me to distract Hector so you can talk to the kid.

You do realize that you sound like a stalker, yes?

[asher_embry]

You want a reclusive guy in some kind of death cult. So do I.

I'm not a stalker. If I were a stalker, I'd creepily call an investigator to follow Lacroix around and figure out where he lives, so that I can just show up. I still have no idea where he lives. You can see Hector all you want; all I can do is listen to Lacroix's voice.
