[normally, he'd ask if it's really that bad, but he's assuming this is a pop star thing. for someone as private as lambda, this really is kind of invasive. even if she's not embarrassed by it. it's the principle of the matter?]
I'll give you a selfie in return.
[but lambda can demand something else instead if she wants]

Do you take returns, or would you rather be paid?
no subject
This is a violation of my rights. [ did she ever have rights to begin with? ] You can pay me.

[ lambda enjoys an audience for all her performances, but that execution setting was a joke. it is very much the principle of the matter.
his return offer offends her, and she bristles. ]
Why would I want a selfie of you?
no subject
You need to tell me your price if you want to get paid. Otherwise, I'll just give you whatever.
no subject
Can you even afford what I want? Would you even pay up?
[ no offense or maybe full offense, but lambda thinks he's someone who'd scam whoever her can. ]
no subject
[he watches the selfie disappear]
Though now I'm wondering if I should, since you took it back.
[the price of a selfie vs the price of humiliation.... and lambda is prickly enough that he thinks she'll scam HIM if it's the latter,]
no subject
Do you have $20?
[ she is and isn't being serious. it is less than she wants to charge, but she knows.... they only have pittance. ]
no subject
[he knows that she knows they only have a pittance, and that this "low" number is probably like 10k in real life, why is lambda so funny]
But I wouldn't give it to you even if I did. Find something else.

You do not know my value. An honest answer to a few questions, at my leisure.
no subject
I'll answer three.

Deal. If you renege or answer untruthfully, I'll find a way to make it worth my time.
no subject
Do I look like a human? [though yes if he thought there was enough of a loophole to wiggle out of it, then he would.] Foxes always keep their word.
no subject
[ it's a popular theme in mythology. ]
no subject
Just make sure to be careful when asking questions. You wouldn't want to waste one.
no subject
Oh, don't mistake me, silly Lee Rang-ssi. I'm not worrying at all. Not with you.
no subject
Don't -- it sounds awkward when you say it. [the term of address, the threat, the smile] You can make your point in other ways.
no subject
Oh, my point is fine this way. Now that that's sorted....
