He really should smile more- but it's saying something when he can stay so pretty even with such a face, such an expression. Hisoka imagines his aura would chill and burn at the same time, were he to have one. Though it only makes him more curious as to what this man can do.
"Hn-" Chuckles, slight, more near the back of his throat than in his mouth. "Do you usually sell yourself short?" Cocks his head.
Doesn't take much, but then, Hisoka has only ever needed a glance or two to know if anyone's worth the effort. Just a glance for Hisoka is so much more than that. He can't see an aura, and he's sure if he could he would be even more sure of himself. But from this short encounter alone, from what Yuri has said, how it was said- how he holds himself- Yuri isn't the only one with a keen eye.
His gaze stays as weighted as ever, lapping at him from behind the glass and it'd be a lie to say there wasn't something like pleasure knotting in his stomach.
He hopes he's right ah-- but if only he could see more.
"Not much at all-" Smiles. "All I ever need is a look. Infact-" A heavy breath, his nostrils flaring for a moment, eyes widening a little under his bangs. "Someone like you I might fall head over heels for." Might-
After all, in here, most everything remains a mystery to him till he can see some action. He doesn't mind if Yuri continues to believe he is that easily swayed. Either way it benefits him. Should he think it's so easy to gain Hisoka's approval, his attention, than he'll underestimate him. But should he realize that 'only a glance' really just means he's perfected reading people- at least to the point of knowing the meat there, if there's anything hidden, well-
Then he might just see a little change in that expressionless face. He likes feeling impressive after all, likes seeing realization on someone's face when they see what he can do- what he's capable of.
