[Alright...well, shit. Ishtar's got him in his clutches now, because there's no way in hell he's going to pass up an offer as good as that one. Getting mister mystery man to show up wherever and whenever he wants? It's a done deal.
Of course, even though he's already decided on that in his head...he's not going to give his "yes" right this second. Ishtar's the one dragging him out of here anyway, and he feels like he's at least due to give him a bit of a hard time about it. Like...come on, he really did want to stay for a little while, and he's not the type to give up easily if he's already set his mind on doing something. Especially not after he was already being good and trying to meet halfway too. Still though, Ishtar's tipping the scales and making this an easier choice than it would've been otherwise. (Honestly, it's flying over his head right now that this is kind of a desperate move...because obviously Ishtar would want to spend time with him that badly anyway, right?? Maybe he'll realize it sooner or later if his ego's ever done being huge).
He's grinning- tilting his head back, and looking at the other guy behind him. Yeah, he gives absolutely no shits about being in the middle of an arcade with people around either. To be fair, it's still pretty deserted since it's the middle of a weekday...but it's not like he'd act any different if it was packed on a saturday night either.]
Hmmmmmmmmm...I dunnoooo~
[His tone's mostly light and jokey- still teasing more than anything...even if there's something like a hint of seriousness to it too.]
How'm I supposed to know you'll stick with a deal when the odds are so stacked in my favor? It's not like I have a way of getting a hold of you. You know...just saying.
[There's no subtlety about it. He shrugs and closes his eyes- shaking his head and keeping up the same tone of voice.
It's true though. Ishtar may be offering him a lot, but it's no good if he doesn't actually get to call the other guy over when he does want to pick a time. And he doesn't want to just spontaneously ask for something right now either- that's no fun. He wants to think long and hard about his decision (not really...but he does want to give it more thought than that). Besides, if there's any prize that's really worth anything- it's getting the hot mystery man's digits.]
