"You're very, very welcome." He pulled the watch carefully off his wrist and waited for Hartley to hold his hand out before he set it in his palm, covering it with his own hand. "You're new here so I'm being generous. The next time we have a deal, you have to bring it better than this or you'll get nowhere." He let go of the watch finally, knowing he'd hate himself later when he couldn't afford hot water and needed the kind of cash that watch would bring.

Hartley just looked so sad and he hated to be that much of a dick. He wasn't lying, he did prefer to have friends. Especially smart ones like Hartley. "Now." He reached his hand up and playfully tweaked Hartley's glasses so they were more in line. "Who are you meeting here? Tell me."

His tone was gentler now, trying to coax the information out by being nice.
