[ There may yet be a way home, even for him. It's not as if sitting around lamenting his continued existence is going to accomplish anything, and Thorin is quite possibly physically incapable of being genuinely idle. It's hard to believe that he is still alive, in every sense, but he will not simply accept death without a fight. He will find something. Especially with Bilbo at his side, he could ask for no truer friend, or more clever ally. ]
Unless you'd rather sit here alone with your drink. [ There's almost a sense of good humor to his tone as he once again shoulders his pack, rather than anything particularly demanding. He can't imagine Bilbo not following him. Perhaps not always tripping on his heels, but sooner or later. ] Bring it with you.
[ He does not wait to see whether or not Bilbo does so, he's already on his way toward the stairs. After all, even if someone were to try anything behind him, they would be sorely pressed to accomplish something before having an unhappy, well-armed dwarven king in very close proximity. ]
