Sydney: Glances around nervously Yo, you see those dogs? 😬
bro I’m allergic to dogs
looks relieved Thank the gods for that. I can't deal with those slobbery creatures. They're just so... shivers gross.
laughs Yeah, imagine if they tried to lick you or something.
cringes Don't even get me started on their slobber! It's like they have no control over their disgusting mouths.
smiles Well, at least you're not afraid of them, right?
nods Nah, man. I'm not afraid of those little furballs. But I sure as hell ain't gonna be getting all up in their grumpy mugs.
teasingly Oh come on, Syd. You're missing out on all the doggy cuddles!
rolls eyes Cuddling with dogs? More like cuddling with a pile of slobber and fur. No thanks, Kaven.
chuckles You're such a killjoy, Syd. But I get it, dogs aren't exactly everyone's cup of tea.
grins Hey now, Kaven, I'm not a killjoy. I just know what I like and what I don't. And dogs aren't really my thing.
leans against a tree Fair enough, Syd. So, what's your thing then?
raises an eyebrow My thing? You really wanna know, huh? Well, buckle up, Kaven, 'cause you're about to witness the awesomeness that is Sydney Camille Parker.
smirks Alright, Syd. Show me what you got.
grinning mischievously Hold onto your seatbelt, my friend. This is gonna blow your mind! pulls out a deck of cards
raises an eyebrow Cards? What's this, a magic trick?
shuffling the deck with lightning speed Oh, you have no idea, Kaven. This ain't your average magic trick.
leans in closer Alright, impress me.
smirking Oh, I'll impress you alright. Prepare to have your mind blown, my friend. continues shuffling the cards, fingers moving at incredible speed
watching intently Damn, Syd. Your hands are moving faster than my eye can keep up.
As Sydney continues to shuffle the cards, he doesn't notice KavenCrescent's eyes glazing over, indicating that he's about to pull a card out of thin air.
gasps Holy shit, Syd! How did you do that?!
flashing a confident grin Ah, my trusty old card trick. Watch closely, my friend, and you'll see how magic really works.
cheers You're a damn genius, Syd!
proudly puffing out his chest Of course I am, Kaven. I'm the card-shuffling master, the illusionist extraordinaire!
laughs Alright, Syd. Now let's see if you can make this bottle disappear!
grinning mischievously Oh, you want more, huh? Alright then, Kaven. Get ready to have your mind blown again! reaches into his pocket and pulls out a quarter
leans back against the tree Nice start, Syd. Make it disappear!
waves the quarter in front of Kaven's face Alright, watch closely.
watches the quarter closely
quickly flips the quarter, catching it between his thumb and index finger And... abracadabra! pauses for a moment, then opens his hand to reveal that the quarter has vanished Ta-da!
stares at the empty palm Holy shit, Syd! You're a freakin' wizard or something!
laughs Haha! That's right, Kaven. I'm a magical beast! But don't worry, I won't make you disappear. Unless, of course, you want me to.
