The Question Nobody Asks

Notice what the Vault’s team has stopped doing. They have stopped asking him questions. Not because they have the answers. Because they learned, one deflection at a time, that asking does not produce one. So they ask each other, and they ask the rumor, and they build a working model of the company out of fragments. Then the Vault looks at the quiet and reads it as calm. Nobody is asking, so nobody needs to know. The silence he is proud of is the sound of a team that gave up on him as a source.
