[ John is used to living every day in motion, is used to having a new threat all the time. But he purposefully puts himself in harm's way. He could walk away from that life if he wanted. When he fights he doesn't have to kill, is asked not to. It's hard to imagine what it would feel like to have the life Carver's describing forced on him. No wonder he's so reactionary, so ready to see the fight in others even when there's none there. Not only is it a reaction born from necessity, it's part of his religion. ]
But it's not like that here.
[ It's a challenge, but it's something he wants to challenge Carver on. Maybe make him see some good in the world again. Maybe show him it's okay to soften his edges. John doesn't really know, but he wants to say it. ]
