[Shirasu doesn't move once the dagger's in flight, allowing it to land before he reaches for it and wipes it clean on his sleeve. Thanks for the return.]
If you'd like to fight the other one, it doesn't seem like that would take much, right now.
[Considering the way Ookurikara drew a sword on Lune, like, immediately...]
But we'll have to wait to see what your entanglement truly means for you. With any luck, it won't be entirely literal-- I'd hate to see our agreement come to an early end as well.
[Ookurikara is so interesting that way. It really turns Hisoka on. Well, if he isn't too busy being petty and irritable about this whole partnership mess.]
Did you talk to them? Lune and Sol? This wasn't a part of their game, I don't believe.
They claim we'll find out tomorrow. I guess we will.
[When he leans back, a few of the vines bunch up to give him a, like, "back of the chair" kind of deal.]
Dying would be a problem. Are you planning to "move on" if something happens to me? [This is the only time his eyes glint with some usual mischief.] You'll find someone else to bring here, won't you...
I've already told you, arrangements like this work best in secret-- not to mention that there's no guarantee either of us would survive. We don't yet know what might happen.
[He's not saying he wouldn't consider it conceptually, though, so Hisoka can take that as he will.]
Ah, I can keep secrets. [He has a lot of them.] But it would be stupid to pair ourselves, you know. If someone tried to get rid of one of us, the other would be in trouble.
Well, there's little use in worrying about how much trouble you're in until we can get more information.
[For all they know, it won't prove fatal for him at all. Lune and Sol are their best sources, but that doesn't mean they're always correct-- intertwined fates could mean nothing in the end.]
It's possible you'll live without him, just as it's possible you'll need a new one.
Ah. [He holds up a finger, and then he leans forward and puts his face in the palm of his hand, his elbow on the highest thigh.] I asked Sol what would happen if we didn't solve the mystery.
They said there would be a bigger problem. How interesting.

[He breathes out a sigh, there, slightly disappointed.]
They don't seem to know as much as I'd like, unfortunately, but I do feel this would've come up if they expected it.
[on the other hand, it also means they don't know much about him, so you know. win some, lose some.]

[He's not needy, damn!]
If I found someone suitable, though, I wouldn't avoid a new arrangement in that case.
[It'd just be troublesome... he'd really rather not have to seek out someone new.]

How faithful. We'll just have to find who did it. [He curls a nailed finger over his chin.] Are you so sure it wasn't really me?
no subject
[His tone is mostly deadpan, there, as he looks Hisoka over.]
After some of the things you've said, I might not be shocked if you just wanted to see what would happen.
no subject
[Well, he didn't deny killing Tsuru, but also he didn't agree to it. So, like, Shirasu will just have to be put-out with Hisoka's dumbass tendencies.]
Oh. What if you did it. Your elaborate plan to have me all to yourself. So you kill my partner, and you plan to frame yours.
[It's cursed Shirasu put him in a better mood?]
