[Well, apparently he's just going to be dragged along, then. Not that he's complaining all that much.]

[water_wine_wizard]

[Dragging him along is fun!

She drags him along into the hotel and up the stairs and down the hall to a rather small room, where she then pushes him into a chair.]

[trenchknives]

[He flops down into the chair, and looks up at her with big, innocent eyes.]

So. You need a business partner?

[water_wine_wizard]

I might need one, possibly.

[She drops onto the bed and drops a gun next to her, close enough to grab and shoot, but far enough away that he can't.]

Bounty hunting isn't always the easiest thing to do, I will admit to that. Finding you people can be rather tiring.

[trenchknives]

What d'you think you'd rather do instead?

[water_wine_wizard]

It's amazing what people will do for a pretty lady.

I have to admit that I've always enjoyed pulling off a good con. But you need a good partner for that.

[trenchknives]

Well, I gotta say, I ain't half bad at a con.

[water_wine_wizard]

Are you better at cons than you are getting arrested?

[trenchknives]

Infinitely better. I've never gotten caught at a con, y'know.

[water_wine_wizard]

No, I wouldn't.

[She laughs though.]

Well, perhaps we could work something out. I'm still going to have to drag your ass out of here handcuffed though.

[trenchknives]

Aw, why's that? Like how I look in 'em?

[water_wine_wizard]

While, yes I do rather like the way you look all helpless there, I did publicly capture you to turn you in for a bounty. It wouldn't look any good to have you walking free, now would it?

[Shame on you, Jimmy. Think for a moment.]

[trenchknives]

Nah, I guess not, but...

[He grins at her.]

If you're not careful, I might start to like bein' handcuffed, too, 'n then you won't be able to use it as a threat anymore.

[water_wine_wizard]

[She leans forward and grins at her.]

What makes you think I'd use it as a threat?

[trenchknives]

You kinda seem like the type of person that would.

[He's just going to lean forward a little, too, because why the hell not.]

[water_wine_wizard]

I think it'd be more of a promise than a threat.

[She's leaning pretty close now.]

[trenchknives]

The good kinda promise, I hope.

[Yeah, just keep leaning over here, Laruna. He's not complaining; it's a nice view.]

[water_wine_wizard]

I always keep my promises.

It makes life interesting.

So, if I let you go, you think you can help me?

[trenchknives]

Yeah, I think I can. I know I can.

[water_wine_wizard]

[She leans over closer, close enough to feel her breath on his face.]

Wonderful!
