[It is quite apparent Venom knows more about this than Carl does just by the way he shows he can examine the terrain in a better light, so he pays close attention. Every word the older man speaks and the outline he draws is quietly adsorbed into his mind.]
So, that's where I went wrong? [It's not really a secret that he messed up before. The knot had been too loose and the animal got away, which is why he came back before with a half broken snare to fix up rather than an animal in hand. But to clarify:]
I mean, this broke because I didn't make it right the first time and now I'm sure the animal that was caught in it isn't coming back. And, um, I'm not really sure how to look for trails either. ...My dad just taught me how to make a trail over a run.
[And here a second ago he was thinking going back to the same spot try again anyway, but now, if Venom is willing to help or offer insight, he'll take it. There's a bunch of the supplies he's collected or earned with rank upgrades at his feet.]
