[A slender finger curls over his chin, and he brushes the nail against his skin idly.] Our matchmaking was very good. We have so much in common. ♥ [Of course, there's no "happiness" in that. Just amusement.]
I worked very hard to keep a big mess from happening already. I'd hate to see it go to waste.
[He's just not going to acknowledge the matchmaking bit, giving Hisoka a flat look there before he shakes his head and carries on.]
Possibly. If we act favorably, we may be able to make it malleable to our will, or so I was told-- so I suppose we'll have to work to keep it intact in order to find out if it can keep things stable, or perhaps change them.
[What happens when the two chaos makers do the right thing for the wrong reasons. FIND OUT AT THE END OF SUB.]
I'm not sure if anyone else here would want to let it become unstable. Mm. But the "darkness" poses a problem. Do you think there's more? Surely, it can't be one time. Persistence is key.
I guess you and I will have to weed out the corruption. What a chore...
[He sees no problem with no one talking to him. Secrets are better kept this way? Also, he will just go to them technically if he really needs to do it.]
You aren't jealous about me seeing other people? My.
[Yet again, he just kind of lets that comment pass... he's getting very used to doing that, with Hisoka.]
Here and there, yes. My partner might be a little difficult to deal with, but not too much trouble... Akane-chan's been quite interesting to speak with, though.
It's early yet to get much that's very useful. Consider it a work in progress.
[A brief pause, and he adds:]
Speaking of works in progress. I'm curious about our elements-- some of us have already made ours clear, intentionally or not. We should stay aware of those and find out what others we can.
[With a somewhat more pointed look:]
I'll be observing and seeing if I can get anyone beyond my partner to admit to theirs. You're in a good position to do that another way-- that girl suggested making people angry, didn't she? If you're not maintaining connections... see if you can't push anyone into showing theirs without outright making enemies of them.
[The smile may only be slight, but he's thrilled at getting to bully people into using their powers. Which... was kind of what he was attempting to do anyway, so at least his MO hasn't changed!!]
My hopefully future partner has the element of fire. He showed me when we first met. The girl--Lili. Hers is likely water; ice specifically. I did make her quite mad, and the air got so cold. If it isn't water, it's air.
You may want to look into it more. She didn't seem very pleased with me at the trial. After what I said to the blonde girl. It's strange I suddenly couldn't say what I wanted sometime after that. Hmm.
A fire power maybe?
[He smiles, amused.]
It hadn't been Lili, if her element is water or air.
I'm not considering it confirmed until I get her to use it. The trouble is that she's not so willing to trust me yet; I told her my element is earth, but I may have to demonstrate that to get her to do the same.

[And, therefore, he'd like to keep it intact.]
Do you think we get a prize for participation?

no subject
[So it depends, really, on how persistent it is and whether purifying Mary truly gets rid of it. He's not about to hang his hopes on that.]
That's quite a lot to put on us alone though, you know. Do you not have other connections?
no subject
I'm shy.
[He makes exactly this face.]

no subject
Ahh. ♪ If you wanted me to be ███, you could have just asked.
[Oh right. At least they went three meetings without anything horny? A record.]
What a pain. Someone used an ability on me.
no subject
[Can't believe we broke 100 before Hisoka got horny...]
Still, even considering the way you've behaved in public, I doubt I'm truly the only one you speak with.
no subject
Oh, but you are. I told you everyone avoids me. You were the only one who wanted to speak to me in private.
no subject
Mm, I suppose that's not too surprising... but it does make things a little more difficult, doesn't it.
[Learn to fake being normal, jeez.]
How troublesome...
no subject
[He sees no problem with no one talking to him. Secrets are better kept this way? Also, he will just go to them technically if he really needs to do it.]
You aren't jealous about me seeing other people? My.
no subject
[So thanks for that, Hisoka.]
Why, are you jealous? I've been seeing a few since arriving here.
no subject
[If it's really a compliment, he honestly doesn't make it seem like it, and he doesn't draw any attention to it before continuing on.]
I suppose I deserve it for pretending to be married to someone I wasn't for the publicity. Is it anyone interesting?
no subject
Here and there, yes. My partner might be a little difficult to deal with, but not too much trouble... Akane-chan's been quite interesting to speak with, though.
no subject
[His look and his smile says "interesting." Bad.]
Minato is also very fun to speak with. He has very curious tastes.
no subject
[They haven't spoken much, but-- well. That boy's definitely weird.]
no subject
I think he can be very useful. If needed.
no subject
[Time to talk to weirdo kid more.]
Anything else of interest you'd like to share?
no subject
[A smile? A smile.]
What about you?
no subject

[Just mentally adding all this to a list. God we're going to need a gdoc and I hate that!]

[He smiles, amused.]
It hadn't been Lili, if her element is water or air.
no subject
[And considering he's lying? Well.]
no subject
She wouldn't be willing to do it in the open. I guess I'll just have to hide in the shadows like a common crook while you amaze her with your talents.
Unless you want me to make her angry? I think I can accomplish that.
