[Jack isn't quite sure what to expect when he opens his door, but that doesn't dampen the smile on his face one bit when he sees who it is.]
Oh, hello! What can I do for you this evening?
[He certainly isn't expecting this to be any sort of tryst, but just from what he's observed lately, he does have a few ideas as to where this might be going...]
Well, to be quite honest, I was wondering if you might be willing to do a little exchange of sorts...you may call it an "exchange of secrets". For example, our secret roles.
[ He looks sheepish at that, but Edward has always been a relatively straightforward individual. Though at least it will be a simple thing... ]
Since it benefits the both of us, would you be interested?
Thank you kindly, I do truly appreciate your agreeing in this.
[ Edward does look a little relieved regardless. He hadn't known how asking a stranger something like this would go, but here we are. ]
And...I suppose to do this quick and painlessly, well, might I see your hand? Or we can just quickly exchange it by our own words in your room, but I didn't want to presume that I would be allowed inside.
Oh, you're welcome to come inside! I trust you don't have any... untoward intentions, so to speak.
[The smile on his face makes quite clear that he's not at all serious when he says this, as does the wink that accompanies it. Edward is cute, certainly, but he's not going to flirt with someone who isn't interested!]
[ Edward looks sheepish at the small gesture, but also once again relieved. It's enough to make him feel comfortable enough to come into Jack's room, looking around, and then finding a nearby chair to temporary seat himself down for a bit. ]
You're right that it is. Since that's all said and done, I will start us off first:
[Jack follows him over and just leans casually against the wall, arms folded across his chest and his smile easy and casual, not faltering in the slightest.]
And I'm the Bat. I don't suppose I have much hope of winning at this point, but ah well. Such is life, no?
[It's unfortunate, but it just means he'll have to find another way to get what he wants. He is a patient man when all is said and done.]

tuesday evening, week 3
An eventual sort of thing that perhaps spur on actions for others, to do what needs to be done before the inevitable partings...
Whatever the case, Edward is one of those and here he is knocking upon Jack's door! ]
Good evening, Jack. Might I have a moment of your time?

[He's already unlikely to win as it is... it probably won't hurt him, if nothing else, and if he can perhaps use this to his advantage...
Though why Edward would choose to initiate such a thing now... hmm.]

It would be more private that way, after all.
