After she snatched the ball back, he couldn't help but chuckle very gently under his breath. Hearing her half-whisper as she had obviously wished. She could have easily said it without him hearing. Opening his maw to begin speaking in turn-but was stopped as she begun the game.
At first he watched closely. Eyes focused on the shell. Then looked up at her instead. Unblinking blue eyes focused on -her- and not the -game-. Folding both of his thick arms over his chest as he waited, staring at her. Not focused in on the shells at all. Having given up all willingness to try and track the ball.
Finally when she stopped, he couldn't help but chuckle again at her word's. "Fitting, red bastard." Snickering gently. Looking now at the shells, still having not blinked this entire time. Then looked right back at her. "As with all game's, there is a chance of losing and winning. But this is a gambler's game, and the chances are one-in-three that I get it right, unless you did something dirty and underhanded!" Making a fake gasp. Waving it off with his hand, grinning once more. Obviously not having meant the last bit. "You wouldn't do that, Kat. Too cute, and adorable." Unlike the word's before, he was being honest now.
Then pointed at the middle one suddenly. "Let's say that one for now." Grinning playfully. Not having really cared if he won or lost it seemed, atleast it seemed that way. Picking up the shell slowly with his hand. Revealing...NOTHING!
"D'awwh." He say's after seeing what was under the shell. His tone rather mock-sadness. As he obviously wasn't bothered in the least. A giant smile still on his face.
