Dirk watches Estinien flounder for almost an entire second before he figures out his inventory at the last possible instant--but he does figure it out, and he catches the rice ball, which is exactly what Dirk expected to happen. Which gives Dirk a fleeting moment of satisfaction at being right.

Whether or not it was necessary doesn't even register to him as a concern, though. So he shrugs, low effort and noncommittal.

"It worked. Now toss it back, I haven't paid for it yet." He lifts a hand, ready to receive the poor rice ball.

"Actually, what are you doing here? I didn't think you did public appearances. That's not even a gag. I don't think I've ever seen you actually exist in a fucking store or out getting coffee or anything. What the fuck."
