[ he really hates when the clown makes sense, wow. 0 stars. ]
I'm reserving any opinion for Sunday.
[ there's been a clear pattern so far (pattern he hates!!!), but there's no guarantee it'll hold, and axel's not willing to push any which way until he sees how people act on the weekend. ]
[ he rolls his eyes and waves a hand dismissively ]
Yeah, yeah, the partner effect thing. I'm not counting that. [ he frowns, a bit ] It'd be a lot easier to work with you if you stopped playing games, you know.
You want me to be serious? [His eyes glint. A humor is there that is not the lackadaisical one he usually has when he's traipsing around. It's darker, a lot darker.
Plenty of people underestimate his ruthlessness because they don't see this kind of hunger.] I can be serious.
[But does Lea want the annoying, but relatively harmless clown... or the bloodthirsty, intense one?]
What can I say, I truly believe if you try hard enough, you could become bearable.
[ well if there's no other option axel is going to attempt to live with this one. and roll with it. and just straight up insult him. he's highkey given up ]
[Honestly, he doesn't look amused at all. He doesn't do a single thing except stare at Lea, unblinking.
The house of cards on the table crumbles suddenly without either of them moving at all. It doesn't startle or bother him. He doesn't even look the cards' way.]

[ it's an afterthought to agree, because. wow a kh thinking people have light and darkness. shook? but as for the question about four... he shrugs ]
She could be. You can never tell what people are capable of before they do it.
[ the implication being that it goes both ways ]

We'll find her if it's true. [He smiles some.] Who do you think we should we check next week?
Who do you think... has the strongest desires? Or the weakest hearts?

If you're not free to do what you want, what kind of chains are you wearing?
no subject
[ he's tired. ]
Let me rephrase: I don't like you playing games at my expense. How's that? Straightforward enough for you?

Is there a middle ground between whatever it is you're implying and you giving me the runaround for fun?
no subject
Afraid not. I'm hurt you want me to change who I am. To be someone I'm not.
[he uh doesn't sound hurt at all, of course]
