[Easy to regret using your spooky superpowers when you're being dangled off a roof, it's true. Don't worry, bud, he doesn't need (definitely doesn't want) your permission to chuck you off the edge if he feels the need.
There's no sign, really, that he's getting tired of letting John hang over the edge of the roof. But if he wanted to drop him, he'd drop him. So...he's listening.
He cants his head, maintains the underlying threat, the low burn of anger still clearly there in the set of his shoulders.
Good faith. Pull the other one, champ. But, well, he's not exactly swimming in sources, right now. So sure. Maybe he can work with that. A little more productive than letting him paint the pavement.
Still—]
Oh, yeah? What are you gonna do? Waltz on down there and ask nicely where they keep their goods? Write me a memo?
[Less outright skepticism in it than a sense of feeling him out. He's seen firsthand what John can do—from one particular perspective. He believes slightly less in the plausibility of him just walking off and coming on back with anything of use. (Didn't take on him for very long, and if they know they're compromised nothing John can tell him will be any good to him for long.)]
