[ The rebuilding of the theatre industry in Aefenglom doesn't just help out the actors of this city. It also means that Trucy is ready to go full throttle with her own plans.

Which is why the Watches are broadcasting Trucy, stood in front of a sparkly piece of fabric, patches of fur visible on her shoulders and arms where her cape, dress or gloves don't cover, but smiling nonetheless.

Beaming, actually. ]

Friends, monsters, witches!

[ She sure is all about the stage presence, spreading her arms with a flourish that sends her cape rippling out behind her, even when the stage is nothing more than her living room, obscured by some well-placed fabric. But that motion does more than simply show off her cape, it allows a large wooden puppet to spring forth at her side, stealing her hat as he unfurls. ]

I invite you to a night of magical wonder, of mystifying illusions and enchantment with the marvellous Miss Trucy Wright!

[ There's absolutely no indication as to how this thing is speaking, or how it sounds almost nothing like the young girl who began this broadcast, but its mouth clicks and clacks as it opens and shuts. ]

Why, Mr. Hat, wherever do I go to see such wonders?

[ She's putting it on thick here, isn't she? But the whole thing bubbles with joy. ]

Oh ho ho! On the biggest stage Aefenglom has to offer, of course! We will be on the streets of the Haven this weekend.

What about the time? I'm a busy girl! I can't hang out all day!

It starts at eight sharp!

Great! I can't wait to see it.

[ And that, dear Mirrorbound, has been your notice of a night of illusions and delight. ]

How exciting! I can hardly wait to see it!

It's a once in a lifetime opportunity to witness my formal debut show here!

[ She's certainly done small street acts since arriving, but finally, this will have more than card tricks, her panties and Mr. Hat. ]

[beariot]

Exactly. I feel like I've barely seen the tip of your potential, and I'm legitimately pretty hyped up to see what you can do with a bigger stage and budget.

[cardtrick]

[ Oh, that makes her flutter with joy, and the smile which had relaxed since Trucy finished her advertisement returns at full wattage in her living room. ]

Why, thank you! It'll be the kind of show Aefenglom has never seen before!

[ That goes without saying when your most famous trick is magic bloomers. ]

[If this isn't familiar...]

You've captured my attention, at least.

[cardtrick]

Excellent! We'll see you this weekend!

[murowa]

If you don't mind me asking, what exactly is that...

Puppet?

[blink. blinkblinkblink.]

[This is a lot to take in.]

. . . Just so I'm clear. What kind of magic are we talking about here?

[cardtrick]

[ You don't know the half of it, my dude. ]

Dazzling illusions, mystifying tricks, clever sleights of hand! No witchery involved!

[ That said, she'd totally love to be a Witch. It looks so cool. ]

[digiorno]

[No witchery involved. Okay. Some of his confusion clears up. (But only some.)]

In that case, I’ll be there.

Is there a refund if I’m not entirely mystified or dazzled?

[ ...ah. The magical girl. ]

A monster still doing magic. Now that's a novelty.

[cardtrick]

Why wouldn't I? I'm still a magician, even if I am a bunny.

... Do you think I could pull myself out of my panties?

[fordola]

--Why the fuck would you think you could.

[Wow! How theatrical! Sora is weak to this sort of stuff, he eats it all right up! The more dramatic a stage play or likewise can be, the better! His long brunette-furred rabbit ears swivel as he looks very curious!]

Whoa, a live street show? I can't wait to see it!

[And with puppet skills like that he's got high hopes!]

Is Mr. Hat one of the stars too?

[cardtrick]

[ Oh, Sora, you're in for a treat in that case. ]

Of course! Mr. Hat is my number one assistant!

[ Though her life might be easier if he had legs. And, like, wasn't a puppet. ]

[oathkeeper]

[He's so hyped up for this!]

That's awesome! I've never seen a puppet like that before. He looks like he could take someone out if he wanted to.

[Girl, that puppet is massive.]

[So this may or may not be utterly besides the point, but....]

do they seriously teach ventriloquism at the coven?

[cardtrick]

I don't know, I've never been.

[marmoron]

oh so were you a street performer before you woke up here?

un: Xx_Aerosmith_Da_Bomb_xX

[accoltellare]

Like, real magic, or "rabbit out of a hat" magic?

[The latter sounds kind of boring now tbh.]

[cardtrick]

[ Well, if real magic is common here, doesn't that just make the latter more unusual and interesting? ]

I can do much more than just pull a bunny out of my panties! Why, back home, the Wonder Bar called Bullet the Fastest Cat In The West!

[ Trucy. Context. ]

I'M SO SORRY

[accoltellare]

[Honestly catch Narancia being able to tell the difference. He just thinks it sounds lame because he's a dumb teenage boy.]

....Out of your panties? Are you like a pervert or something?

un; littlerobin

[slayvega]

This sounds like a fun show. I'll try to be there.

smooches

[cardtrick]

Great! I'll reserve a seat for you.

[ ... Well. A standing spot. ]

How does front row sound?

<3

[slayvega]

The front row sounds like the best row to be.
