Yeah, I'm for it! :D At the moment I think Chris' mindset is like "if the kid won't stay back where it's safe, at least I can keep him by my side in the field", so it's. It's FINE.

I'll be throwing up a toplevel sometime today or tomorrow-- would you like me to set a closed starter up for Junior there? I could make it like they're in their apartment and Chris mentions leaving for the night for patrol and Junior volunteers to come, or go straight to being out on the assignment. Do I assume that by then Junior's already been attacked at least once?

ALSO ALSO, we can always handwave their interactions during the main kelpie mission whilst playing the patrolling stuff out. ✌ I don't mind that, either!
