[ Please, Katherine, we all have lives to attend to here. Just because Jack isn’t as big a fan of homework as his roommate doesn’t mean he’s going to just slack off! ]
You’d be better off getting yourself a dog to get there, you know. Can’t get too far on your own as a half-pint.

What was he saying?]
A dog?
You know, that's actually not the worst idea I've ever heard. I'm sure I could take one of the rotties, maybe Orthus...

Happy to be of service.
[ And now that the time for being helpful has passed… ]
And if you ever want to return the favor…
[ He’ll just let that stand. The implication should be obvious in the way he grins. ]
