"Only I do have some things I must attend to in the House, and, er, I'm on my best behavior in regards to spending my time wisely. Door and I've had a bit of a rough patch lately, and I'd like for things to run smoothly."

He gestures for Andrew to take a seat on the couch. "Now what's this about troubles in your world?"
