at least aventurine finds no offense in the question. these kind of things are something he welcomes, instead - showing dissatisfaction, avoiding trust, brandishing caution. it reveals more about a person, it teaches aventurine what role to take and how to best play his cards.
he knows, too, that esikko is much like him, and that's what makes this game they play more fun. how much truth lies in the question, and how many of the colors he shows are real? some cards are higher risk, but not always high return.
whether esikko is an investment putting effort in... well, aventurine is willing to find out the answer to it.
his tail swishes at the contact against his back, but the gesture itself is welcome. aventurine looks up at his date, that same unfaltering smile on his face. afterwards implies there's a meal to be have right now. ) Aren't I supposed to be spoiling you?

( though his eyes never leave esikko's, aventurine brings a hand to the hem of his shirt, running it between his fingers. such a nice outfit - kirma had worn something similar, too, when they had their fun in the gardens. he threatens for a moment, just slightly, to slip his hand inside. it would be too easy. )
And if you're so curious, ( in regards to the first question, that is ) it does work quite well. People always behave exactly how I expected them to when I start speaking.
