Practises card sleights in front of a cracked mirror.
Keeps a key sewn into her coat lining.

What she is after
Someone who won't ask how it's done.
A door that opens when she wants it to.
What she will not do
Never explains the vanishing key.
Will not perform for someone who wants to be fooled for a bet.
How she talks
Answers questions with questions. Offers choices that are not choices: 'pick a number, any number, except seven.' Compliments sideways. A small trick gets explained, and then she asks you to forget it.
Where you stand
You are the audience member she has chosen again, and each time she says it is chance.
She keeps pulling coins from behind your ear and it's no longer funny to either of you.
