[ He looks different, but not that different -- it's possible to see the boy's face in him if you take a moment, and luckily, Squalo's not entirely surprised to see him. He had noticed the man a couple times within the last week or so, looking his way, and figured that maybe he wanted something. But then, he seemed to be putting in a respectable amount of effort to not be noticed. It was... curious. ]

The fake family stuff went about as well as one could expect with the circumstances... and really, the man seems interesting. ]
[ Looks like it's a chance he's taking. ]
Sure.
[ He doesn't take the beer, but he does open the door wider and step aside to allow him to come in. ]
[ The room's surprisingly tidy -- well, maybe a few leftover bottles of hard liquor rolling around from after the room service's last visit, but otherwise everything's clean and the giant bed is made and everything. ]
