"Thank you, Madam Dodger," the half-demon said with a smile. "It pleases me to hear you both offer to escort me, and call me 'interesting'." He chuckled again after that last word.

Dodger seemed to enjoy being in control, so the good doctor figured that he would flatter her, just a little. It wouldn't hurt.
