[ Actually, he cocks his head to the side as he wonders if he should do the hard backdown on his proposal. After all, he recalls wanting Illumi to try out his needles on him and the Manipulator explained that it would turn him into an unfeeling vegetable.
[ Rohan has zero problems with the idea of it, after all. But, he is fine with maintaining boundaries with Hisoka, and keeping those nice and clean means ensuring that there was some level of confidence in his request. He knows what he is capable of once someone is at his mercy. And, regretfully, he doesn't hate Hisoka. So here he is, actually confirming it's okay instead of just going in. ]
People don't typically request I use my stand on them.
[ That is an interesting little tidbit. An ability that can alter a person's behavior could be quite useful to, well, anyone. So, he wonders why people wouldn't request to Rohan to use his Stand on them. ]
It seems like it has a whole variety of uses, though. You could make a person who is afraid of spiders no longer fear them, right? [ Crossing one arm over his chest, he uses his other to point toward Rohan. Honestly, the person in front of him has quite a powerful ability.
Manipulators are usually quite dangerous to fight in battle, and if Rohan actually wanted to kill him --
Or I could make someone afraid of them if they weren't. I can make someone think they're a Spider.
[ Yes it is that easy. But, he knows exactly why people don't ask him to. There's a total lack of control that comes with him using it on someone. He has a lot of power over someone, and there's not much someone can do once he's caught them. ]
Heaven's Door can do a lot of things. Maybe I shouldn't tell you everything it can do, though.
[ Hisoka agrees that if he hears too much about the ability that he'll end up wanting to kill Rohan. That would be fun -- and with death not being permanent in this world, it means that they could continue to have fun with each other, but!
He still hasn't figured out if a person loses some strength to their ability when they revive. He wouldn't want to test it on Rohan since it means that their next fight wouldn't be as enjoyable as the first. And if the first is going to be as much fun as he can get ... he wants to make sure that it counts. ]
That ability of yours is really something, Rohan-sensei! A true Manipulator! [ Still, all things considered, Hisoka is pleased. ] I'm really impressed!
[ Oh goodness. He's glad he stopped where he did. He'd rather, for his own safety - and the safety of those around him - not let the other know exactly what's going on. It'll be better to defend himself if Hisoka can't plan for anything. Does this guy even really plan?
Rohan can't really tell, he seems to just do what he wants, whenever he wants. Impulsiveness drives him crazy so often. ]
Isn't that great. I'm so glad that my getting shot with an arrow could impress you.
[ Yeah. Obviously he's not really seeking anyone's approval. His stand is useful for his work, and that's what he cares about more than anything. ]
[ He frowns in an exaggerated way -- his bottom lip juts out as he dips his head down. ]
I'm just saying how much I like you. Boohoo-boohoo.
[ He presses his tips of his index fingers against the corner of each eye and drags his fingers down. It's a simple pantomining of crying, because when has he ever actually cried about anything?
Hisoka spreads his fingers around his face so that he's holding his chin in his hands. ]
[ Ah, too much. Well, sort of. But, what he has told Hisoka could be inspirational. Especially the parts where he can make people think things or be afraid of things. This isn't even what he would use it for, but it works all the same. ]
Real experiences, witnessing real events is very inspirational.
[ Oh, he's ready to use his stand if he needs to. Having to regulate his use of Heaven's Door so he doesn't off himself by draining Chroma is proven to be a pain. Any other day, he would have just used it already. But, if Hisoka doesn't mean it right now, then he's not going to use it. ]
[ The flippant way that he answers -- is he being serious? Well, yes, of course, he is. Rohan's skill level ranks him quite high but since he is a non-combatant his overall score remains low. So his desire to kill him fluctuates on what he considers the most pleasurable at the moment. Naturally! ]
But for right now? I just thought you might need the inspiration.
[ Huffs. He shoves his hands into his pockets, and suddenly looks...very indifferent about the whole thing. Like Hisoka is wasting his time. ]
I don't want to kill anyone. [ Eyeroll. ] And it's a waste of Chroma for me to just summon Heaven's Door for no reason. I'm just going to assume you mean it next time, and if it's a waste, you owe me.
[ Chroma - wait. He immediately wants to take it back...but he doesn't. ]
[ Hisoka turns his head to the side to blow a silent raspberry when Rohan says he doesn't want to kill anyone. But he understands, at least, that it's a waste of chroma to summon something that isn't needed. ]
Hmmmmm? I'll owe you?
[ His eyes sparkle a little. ] How will I owe you?
no subject
Are you sure about that?
[ He wonders if Hisoka understands how much access Rohan would have. But...if he volunteers... ]
no subject
Should I not be sure about it?
[ Actually, he cocks his head to the side as he wonders if he should do the hard backdown on his proposal. After all, he recalls wanting Illumi to try out his needles on him and the Manipulator explained that it would turn him into an unfeeling vegetable.
:(

I care more about using it for manga anyway.

Or not. Nevermind. Just don't make me waste it.

I don't want you to try and make up for any Chroma loss.
