[Not quite that at all. There's more motivation than just a good time, which he thinks surprised even Sparkle when he told her.]
[But even as he dwells back on that final meeting, the man's arm moves to close them in with the divider - and then with his words, he spins a tale. And finally, the pièce de résistance, that arm that shifts around him, pulls him in across this metaphorical poker table, as if daring him to drop that smiling poker face and reveal a little more under the surface.]

Of course, something like this won't really nab him. Many a Silvermane Guard would agree with it. But here, he plays along. His own hand moves up between them, fingertips tracing his side before putting a playful poke into his chest.]
