Okay, so maybe the look didn't say that exactly, but he was correct about her wanting the points.
Waylon held out his hand so she could drop her tokens into it, except he found himself retracting said hand as he heard what else she had to say.
Ohh..
He knew what she was doing, and Waylon Murdoch was not going to fall for it! Clearing his throat, he held out his hand once more and leaned forward just a little bit, making shifty eyes at the girl. "I'll tell you what. How about I give you your ten house points, and you still feed the ducks everyday for a week?" Bwaha!
Sierra had nearly dumped her tokens into the man's hand when he quickly retracted said hand, nearly causing her to dump her precious tokens onto the ground. She had half a mind to pretend she
had dropped some, that way she could claim more sometime later.
She raised her eyebrows, realizing this man was attempting a bargain. Now he was playing Sierra's game, which meant she just had to up her bargaining a bit.
"I'll tell you what," he said, holding out her handful of tokens again.
"I'll feed your ducks everyday for a week." Pause.
"Then when I'm done, I'll meet you in your hut and we'll talk further negotiations over cake and butterbeer."
She jiggled her handful of coins.
"I'll take twelve of my house points now, please."
