Who, him? Hikaru widens his eyes into an innocent expression, tilting his head a fraction in a move he'd picked up from Honey to emphasise his youthful features. He's so young and innocent, Kyouya, look at him. He blinks a few times in feigned confusion, and offers a small shrug.

"Of course I'll pay for him, Kyouya-senpai." Though inwardly, he cusses. He had hoped it would be more of a group thing, but he can probably still squeeze money out of at least Tamaki. "He'll be like a bodyguard for me and Kaoru." A subtle reminder from him that it's a dragon, Kyouya, and nobody is going to attack someone who has one of those. Any price is worth that assurance of safety.
