[ i will not ask how it works. it has simply come to be.
And it's not as though Aventurine hasn't found himself in odd predicaments before. This one suits him just fine, an air of casual professionalism to him as he regards the board for just a moment before turning his attention to his opponent. He observes the lopsided smile, the confident line of the man's shoulders, and he breaks out into an easy, charming grin of his own as he extends his hand to accept the handshake. ]
Just a humble merchant passing through. [ And maybe it was the gamble that had called him here. ] A pleasure, Mr. Bearzatti. Call me Aventurine.
[ Their handshake lasts the appropriate amount of time before he lets go. ]

But Aventurine gives him a solid shake that would satisfy any man of stature, not that he is one. He preps his cue stick as the board assembles itself. The billiard balls roll and shape themselves into a triangle without the need of a rack. Technology..... Which Jacopo finds wondrous and tries to mask it, but there might be a glimmer in his eyes. ]
You have good taste in scents, Aventurine. [ Guess who noticed your cologne? ] The vetiver base tone rounds everything else out. Somehow it's luxurious yet approachable.
