[ His tone perks up. ]
I mean, that'd be great. It gets boring going out and doing all that by yourself, so maybe a little company would help after all.

[Holding him to it, he means. He's definitely not going to forget, this filed away under "pending investigations" in his mind.]
A second set of eyes won't do any harm, anyway. I'll look forward to it, once circumstances calm down.
