[He's certainly well aware, which was cause for more than a little hesitation. But as he's promised, he'll take full responsibility for whatever comes of this. It's the least he can do right now]

I'll be sure that I ask him then, he'd probably have more ideas than I do. If we can prevent that Cobra Commander from harming anybody so easily, we can keep more people safe and maybe discourage them.

...Although I'm not counting on that.

[One thing he's learned from Lightning is to not be so optimistic that there's no way he can possibly achieve what he's aiming for. It's not practical, as tough as that is to accept.

But he'll never take to the idea of Lightning taking on being targeted all on her own]
