The Doctor put his head on the other side, considering the idea. He couldn't think of any reason to say no, but plenty to say yes. It never hurt to have friends, even if one of them was a 'demon'. Besides, he'd spent an awful lot of time getting into trouble with human girls; maybe non-human males would attract a different kind of trouble. Should be interesting.

"I think," he said slowly, "I'll take you up on that offer. I haven't pissed anyone off in a while," he added with a sly grin. "At least, not intentionally."

He held his hand out to Mictain again, this time not as an introduction but as a friend, ready to embark on some strange new business venture.

"One condition, though..."

He smiled. "I get to call you Mickey sometimes."
