[He has to laugh at that a little; is he really that serious? Probably. At least, he is when it counts. Rinne has barely seen him be anything but that, after all, excluding the first time that they met.]
Luck is a fickle thing. Even the longest winning streak has a chance of coming to an end. If you lose, how will you pay me back?
[There's a hint of challenge in his voice, but an even greater curiosity; Akira genuinely wants to know if he has a plan up his sleeves if things should go poorly.]
I might take an answer that isn't currency, too... but you'll have to find the right thing to sway me.

He really was asking me without any intention to pay me back, wasn't he...]
I'm a cat person for what it's worth, but what do dogs have to do with it?
[It's in part his idle curiosity, and in part a delay tactic. What does he even want...? The list is short, and not the sort of thing that Rinne can fulfill. None of them can leave here, after all, nor has he ever seen anyone send communication to the outside or receive it.]
That aside, it depends on what sort of things you're offering. I don't intend to ask you for anything you don't want to give, but I'd like to know some of my options.
[He has a feeling Amagi is too slippery to give him a straight answer, but he'd like to try anyway.]
I can walk yer dog if ya had one. I don't plan on moochin' off ya without payback~
[Even if he did basically kind of tried that, but he had every intention of winning and paying back what he should! It's just... a matter of winning first.]
I wanna take the chance while lady luck's smilin' down on me.

[He sighs, dramatic and loud, that it was hard to tell if he was mocking him or genuinely exasperated at the idea. Either way...]
I know! Lend me some chips, and I'll double 'em up with the pachinko machines. I feel really lucky today~ I betcha I'd get a large payout easy.

[You know. If he wanted him to walk his dog or something.]
If it's something I can do, I'll do it if it seems reasonable.
