[There is a very brief moment where Taako is concerned that something is actually wrong with Rin, before he puts two and two together. It takes another half second for him to force down the immediate grin that threatens, but he figures he can play the pause off as shock.]
Babe? Oh my god, what's wrong?
[Now he's got his shit under control, Taako is more than happy to throw himself into it; he puts a tremor in his voice as he moves like he's about the reach for Rin, only to stutter to a halt and grab for his purse instead.
Out of it comes a pouch of gold that's far too large to have fit in there, but maybe it's just a bag of holding (or it's just a very good illusion, but no one needs to know that). He holds the bag out in the direction of the auctioneer in offering.]
