Why don't you stay for a few minutes? Have a beer and some sandwiches in the kitchen?
[You know, he a couple of normal people instead of being a crazy teenage Viking and an even crazier ex-assassin.]
[A part of him feels a mild pang of regret for refusing, but he doesn't want to stay within four walls at a house he doesn't know and hasn't scouted out properly. So he takes a step back towards the door.]

[And then he's gone, abrupt and swift, just like that.]
