She almost rolls it back, tells him she can find something on her own if he doesn't think it's a good idea - but he walks himself through it and gives her just the offer she was hoping for. A connection, not a favor. Networking is practically how the criminal world survives: she doesn't mind it so much when the blue bloods do it.
She doesn't even mind it so much from him.
"Just what I wanted to hear. You can even have the first round, when it opens." That will be a delicate balance, she thinks: Selina doesn't want him getting too deep into that world. It's more protective than she'd like to think, but she tells herself it's because he couldn't survive it. There's still so much she has to learn about this Gotham.
