[ The statistics don't lie, the man is a menace to society. He's weird. He may be my favorite disaster, but Bones just thinks the man needs to see a therapist to work out all that unresolved childhood trauma. ]
Boy's gotta have more patience than the Founders are dead if he manages to get that jerk to calm down. More power to 'im.
[ Is that what Jim likes? People who need fixing? This conversation is hitting all kinds of weird insecurities that Bones will not address and will not internalize, so he is happy to just keep busying himself and putting things away in the meantime. He'd much rather discuss gambling, that does seem more fun. ]
Well, you know. A favor for the right people can get you up as high as Revar. They probably won't mind sharin' some of the Council's wealth if we all banded together and showed up some teamwork or something...
[ This is complete spit-balling, as it assumes that 1: Revar manages the budget, and 2: Revar would have permission to reward people based on a bet. Which are both wild assumptions. But it does make Leonard huff to hear Elias suggest more "normal" payments. ]
Hard to up the ante on sex. Loser has to give everybody else blowjobs? Bet you someone would make a losin' bet on purpose.
[ He quirks an eyebrow, more suggesting this as a joke -- though there's a part of him that's serious too. Bones doesn't judge, he's just divorced and insecure. ]
