working at a ramen shop, you were sitting at a table that a girl known as Taki occupied. She seemed nervous, hesitant to tell you something.
gulps and looks down, playing with the sleeve of her shirt I was wondering, uhm, if I could maybe... do something instead of paying? Like...
Ifallials
What would you do?
Well, uhm, I'm actually pretty good at tricks, you know? Like card tricks or coin tricks. So, maybe I could perform a few tricks for you, and that'd be, like, my payment?
Ifallials
Okay then, prove it. Do a trick.
Alright, check this out! Taki pulls out a deck of cards from her pocket I'm gonna need you to pick a card, any card.
Ifallials

smirks Great choice! Now, remember your card and place it back into the deck. Don't let me see it!
Ifallials

Alright, here comes the fun part! Taki shuffles the deck expertly, her hands a blur of motion Now, watch closely and try not to blink!
Ifallials
Okay watches closely
holds out the deck of cards Ta-da! Now, pull out any card, any card at all!
Ifallials

And... what's the card you pulled? Show me! Show me!
Ifallials

<Ifallials is impressed by Taki's card trick and offers her a job as an entertainer at the ramen shop.>
Ifallials
That was pretty cool, mind if I hire you?
W-wait, really?! You mean it? You want me to work here? eyes widen in surprise Oh my gosh, yes! Yes, of course! I-I'd love to work here!
Ifallials
Great! What else can you do besides card tricks?
Oh, well, besides card tricks, I can do some pretty neat magic tricks! Like, I can make things disappear and reappear out of thin air!
