[Amused by Jolene's lingering irritation with the less interesting aspects of her education (a sentiment he can absolutely relate to), Kylo's mouth pulls into a rare, lopsided smile that only fades once she begins offering her theories on Oliver's motivations— his expression settling back into one of careful, focused consideration.]
He's certainly stirred plenty of it. Chaos and disruption. And, perhaps, damaged whatever confidence Ambrose had begun to gain for his project among the general population.
[But it's the topic of distraction that catches Kylo's attention. His brow furrows slightly— clearly, there's a theory of his own he's chewing on, and broaching the subject might require a little... delicacy he's not exactly built for.]
It is always easier to move unnoticed in another's shadow. [He pauses, eyes raising to meet hers carefully. He very pointedly does not look towards Jolene's escort.] Do you think it possible Oliver has agents among the guard? Individuals who might have had unsupervised access to the prisoners that were held here.
[Because if so, the steady look in his eyes suggests, Kylo thinks he may have a lead on how Oliver was able to get past Thorne's wards.]
