Lie

Alec's eyes narrow slightly and again, his mouth hints that there's a smile just dying to emerge but it's kept at bay. "Oh, I'm sure you don't do anything but keep your head on straight. Unless you count coming here. That one still has me stumped."

Spying the deck of cards as she draws them out of her pocket, one could almost see him itching to play. He bites his lip, weighing his options. He'd had nothing to do for so long... a simple deck of cards was like heaven. But he wasn't here to enjoy himself. He was here to think about freedom and getting away from here. He wasn't here to socialize. He was here to keep his enemies.

"Not really," he lies. Taking the ball he throws it so it ricochets off the wall just left of Ryan's head, showing that either he was lucky or had very good aim. He doesn't let it fly again though, his eyes returning to the cards. "Well maybe... sometimes... I didn't think you were staying that long though."
