[Playing dumb as he tabs to that other conversation. Another cultivator? Same card? Very obvious who that is now. Interesting. :)) ]
That's right. I typically use a different room. [Glossing past that--] However, for these purposes, I don't mind using other spaces such as the rentals from Open Season. Convenience is a much more important factor to me than familiarity.
I suppose not. But now that you mention your friend: does that mean that you are not in need of a 2 of Clubs?
[ nosy!!! nosy guy!!! he wonders what matoba means by using a different room. is he roommates with someone? but then ah, rentals also make sense too. hm.
which means he's caught off guard by the question and is immensely flustered. ahh... well... yeah, he doesn't need the card anymore. just. thinking about his time in the omegadome with lan wangji gets his face feeling hot. ]
Haha, interesting. In that case, that means that this would be extracurricular on both our parts, wouldn't it? Simply chips and an extra card.
[Something that Matoba does not often do unless he has other reasons to engage. But in this case, he is very curious about Wei Wuxian- about his abilities, about what else he does not know about this man yet. And he has found that even the tightest lipped men find themselves opened up when they are...]
[Well. Usually opening him up.]
I think that is fair. Very well, we can negotiate any further terms in person, I think. [It's less a question and more an expectation:] Shall I arrange us a room?

[ Wei Wuxian is not... completely oblivious to Matoba's intentions. So far, he's kept up the act of being feeble and useless and not showing his powers to the extent that he has them. But! He knows that won't last for long, especially with someone as curious as Matoba.
Still, this should be fun and Wei Wuxian does like fun things. So, he can't bring himself to decline, no. ]
yeah!! let's do it. i'm curious about these spare rooms anyway, they're probably better than either of our rooms hahahahaha
[He has certainly been slippery, this one. But if Matoba thinks he has learned something about this man in the few times they have met, it's that he can't keep his mouth shut. Eventually, something good is going to come tumbling out.]
[There's obfuscation, and then there is biting off more than you can chew. Matoba simply hasn't pressed him hard enough, yet. That can change.]
They are certainly interesting. If you think the rooms we are given to live in are a little tacky, you are in for a treat.
Very well. Tomorrow at noon. Ask for me at the reception.
I do hope you won't disappoint me with that prowess of yours, Wei Wuxian-san.
