[ For a moment Hiei's brow rises, almost to the same level as his the ward over the jagan eye at the offer of up to three dango. Of course his stomach is saying that he wants probably more than three dango, but.. he can always earn tickets elsewhere if he really wants to.

Still, he's in a mood so he might as well see what he can get. ]

Only three? That seems cheap.

[coolerjunpei]

Cheap? Don't be greedy.

[Is he made of tickets! Or actual money in this case, considering he's already kind of resigned himself to losing badly... Either way: come on, man.

He looks at the ring already on the one bottle again, thinking about it. Nnnnh... uggghh...]

How many do you want? Be reasonable.

[jaganshi]

As many as I can win. [ He's a demon, Junpei, he will be both unreasonable and a glutton and be 0% sorry about any of it, honestly. He's been stuffing his face for hours but he still has an eye that eats energy as quickly as he can nap and eat to replenish.

He's also savage enough to pocket a dango if he needs to. ]

Do I look like a light eater to you or something?

[coolerjunpei]

Hah, what? You look like someone who's trying to eat all my prize tickets and my money.

[Objectively speaking... He's not made of dango cash, there are limits!!]

How about you throw some more rings and we'll see how many you earn?

[jaganshi]

And? When you’re so unskilled you recruit others you pay a premium. [ spoken like a guy who is pretty much currently a hired gun in a way. It pays to be the former king’s right hand even when you couldn’t give a shit less about things like money. ]

I can also leave you to fail miserably and rotate for my own purposes.

[coolerjunpei]

I'm paying you a snack premium to play, not to do it for me. Don't get too cocky.

[Junpei is still losing regardless, but like, let him nitpick this.]

Just throw the rings.

[jaganshi]

If I am throwing your rings am I not doing it for you? [ Hiei's head tips, and this time he on purpose throws the ring far too hard, with a little flick of his wrist. It bounces off a bottle and back out into the people also around the stand. ]

I can also be a pain in the ass and neither of us wins anything.

[coolerjunpei]

That wasn't really what I had in mind... I wasn't recruiting or anything.

[Oops, his bad? Don't think too hard about how he was using bribery to get someone to play with him and not to actually win.

But oh. This display...]

Uh... Why would you do that?

[jaganshi]

For the satisfaction of screwing you over while I can still play elsewhere and win my own tickets. [ He's a demon, he gets a little thrill out of things like this now that he knows he'll definitely go to jail for who knows how long for killing, particularly for killing a human.

Hiei's days of just doing it for fun are long gone, though. Happily for Junpei. ]

It's a small thing, but it'll be enough.

[coolerjunpei]

Okaaaayy... but what's the point? I'm not going to run home crying over ring toss. Somebody else can win me a prize if I'm that desperate.

[Because he's not going to win regardless, and he's made his peace with that.]

What are you, anti-games? Come on.
