[Krouse is lucky that Hannibal is at home, otherwise the message may not have been seen for a few hours. experiencing the disruption in the comfort of his own home came with many benefits. he's almost grateful for it. he's checking for any potentially useful updates on the network when Krouse's message comes through.
he debates with himself on responding, has an inkling about where this may lead. he doesn't like texting -- he offers no pleasantries, no concerns. the less on the network, the better.]
I am available at 6:00pm. May I ask what this is about?
[the less the better, yes, but. it's not under his control what Krouse may or may not decide to elaborate on.]
