There was an empty cup at his desk with a dark stain that seemed to hint that it was often filled with tea or coffee. At the moment it was being used as a paper weight for a small stack of papers that were somewhat straightened together though not perfectly so.

He lifted the cup and took the first page before setting it back and began to write upon it.

"I ask questions, you answer, and then sign it. It's very simple. Unless you'd rather I give you a blank page and you fill it out with your own statement and sign it."

He looked from him to the boy, wondering how long they'd fake interest in the task at hand.
