[One day, Sampo will find himself on the receiving end of a box with an unusual lock, bought for him because a man who should be a strained professional acquaintance-friend thought that it would interest him. He'll deal with the emotional fallout of that when he gets to it.]
[Gepard, as expected, is honest in his answers. An honest man, what a novelty. It's new to have a man who actually tells him the truth when he asks a question.]
It would be. Not that I'm confirming any crimes, mind you, but it would be silly for me to give my real name to a man who should want to arrest me.
[It's silly for him to hang around with a man who should want to arrest him, but right now, their acquaintanceship has more benefits than detriments. The arrest risk is worth having a willing juice box. Never let it be said that Sampo Koski isn't willing to risk it for the biscuit!]
[And speaking of risking it, he smiles at Gepard as a fun little idea comes into his head.]
Well, Captain, if you're not offended, how about we play a little game? [Don't you like games, Gepard? Sampo likes games.] If you can figure out my name, I'll owe you a favor. Whatever you want!
[He'll even walk himself right into a jail cell for him, fair's fair.] But if you're wrong, I get one from you.
