Finnick does have a knack for that. Not that he's planning on using the skill in any kind of malicious way, not here in Caldera. There isn't any need to be manipulative or deceptive with the people here. They're all just... Kind. No one that he's encountered has anything but his best interests in mind.
Finnick laughs softly through his nose. "I wasn't asking for anyone's opinion but yours."
When he says he doesn't know, Finnick continues gently, tucking some dark hair behind Loki's ear.
"That's okay. I never know how to answer that, either. How about some options? We could stay here and chat a little more, get to know each other better. You could... Come to my place, which isn't too far of a walk. Or we could think things over and plan to meet another time."
Loki might get the sense that Finnick has practice with this sort of conversation, and not with his clients, but with someone he cares for. That comes through in his voice now, though he hopes it isn't condescending.
