( absolutely fucked up that esi knows about that, but aventurine will do what he does best: ignore, deflect, lie. )
Nothing so complicated, my friend. I simply do not have the means. My little bet with J didn't grant me what I asked for, after all. ( in part. he was still lucky with his loss, so it checks out. )
You may keep some blood, though not all. If I do wake up, I would prefer not to find myself anemic, on top of everything else. I will share my findings with you as well. Consider it payment for being so generous. Are you still scared someone will come for you? There's no need, but if it would ease your concerns, then I will play along. I do not wish to bring you trouble, my friend, only employ your abilities. You have shown me some of them before, after all. And dare I say, it was an unforgettable encounter.
Better yet, as proof of my sincerity, I would be happy to transfer you all of my current chips. You may keep all of it, in case I don't return. If I do, I only ask for half of it back. How does that sound?
