[color=662d91]“So. You can do the adorable kicked puppy thing, and you have enough firepower to impress an army group. These are a few of my favorite things~”

Right. Less flirting. More booking it. Jinx didn’t waste any time at that-granted Pent was just a tad bit heavier than his normal fare-paintings, diamonds, the like...that didn’t quite measure up. Closest thing was juvenile Aerodactyl skeleton...and he hadn’t had to worry that much about security then.

Locking them in an elevator tended to have that effect. Lost in these fond memories, he operated more or less entirely on instinct from there on out-going almost entirely silent. Dodge. Weave. Double back. Plant evidence for false leads. The normal stuff. 

Jinx hazarded a glance behind him. No pursuit. Good. That...had gotten a bit more exciting than he’d thought. Also incurred a little 

[color=662d91]“Well.”[/color] Jinx chirped, finally. [color=662d91]“That was fun.” [/color]A sly look crossed his face then. [color=662d91]“And I gotta say, you were pretty quick to cross over to the fun side of the law. I like that. You’ve got good instincts! And that trick with the staff was...well, if that thing was in a museum, I’d probably be planning the heist right now.”[/color]

A brief look of concern flashed across Jinx’s face, as he realized the implications of the last statement.[color=662d91] “Not. That uh, I’d steal it from you. You did me a solid. Plus, you know, you kinda look like a kicked puppy.”[/color] Which was to say, kinda adorable.

….He had his weaknesses.[color=662d91] “Anyway. If you don’t want the heat, feel free to say I dunno, I tried to kidnap you or somethin’, not like that’ll add too many years to the sentence they’d be looking to pin on me.”[/color] Jinx paused again. [color=662d91]“Least I can do. That really made up for that boring flight over. Snorefest. Lemme tell you.”[/color]

This was how the creature known as Jinx attempted to make small talk.

To say it had not evolved for this purpose was putting it lightly.

And of course, Jinx being...Jinx, the fact he might have been able to get medical assistance from the airport without sending a larceny prone hellhound out of course, never entered his mind. 

[color=662d91]“And hey, if the heat’s not a problem, I’m in the market for a partner in crime. Enhance the brand. You know.”[/color] He waved his nonchalantly. [color=662d91]“Expand. Diversify.”[/color]
