'Regardless, I have total faith.'

Faith that Louis will notice things, if Daniel nags him enough, and that he won't do anything too reckless. Sort of reckless, sure, but he has to believe (because he has no other choice) that if Louis saw something really and truly weird, a situational equivalent of that sign posted in underwater caves with the grim reaper on it, he'd back off.

And then—

'Anytime you want,' is warm, with the impression of a fond laugh. 'Except noon in a cafe, I guess. But you have the schedule.'

Lestat's schedule, he means. It's up to Louis decide if he wants to come meet up, intersect with the tour, or if he'd like Daniel to skim off at some point during a break. Of course, Daniel doesn't expect him to swan in here and hold his hand in front of Louis' maker — he expects Louis to keep using Daniel as a buffer for a while and eventually go back to him, frankly — but he could always quietly book a room somewhere down the street, and they could meet up. Go on evening cocktail dates. Pretend to be normal, or. Well. As normal as a pair of people who look like a hired caretaker and his patient can seem.
