(The air is thick with tension. Elias leans back, swirling his drink, watching Leon like a man amused by a game he’s already won. Rin stands at Leon’s side, gun steady, pulse even.)
Elias
So. You storm into my home, kill my men, and now you want to negotiate?
(Leon smirks, slipping into a chair across from him.)
Leon
Negotiating implies you have a choice.
(Elias raises an eyebrow.)
Elias
Oh? And what are you offering?
Leon
Your life.
(Elias laughs softly.)
Elias
You’ve got balls, little brother.
Rin
You’re stalling.
(Elias smirks.)
Elias
So impatient.
Elias
What do you want, Leon?
(Leon flicks a knife from his sleeve, tapping it against the desk.)
Leon
The name of your supplier.
Elias
Which one?
Leon
The one you’ve been using to undercut my shipments.
Elias
You think I’d betray my own source?
Rin
I think you’d do anything to save your own skin.
(Elias exhales, amused, tapping his fingers against the glass.)
Elias
And if I give you a name… what do I get in return?
