Private to Stephanie

[Kevin can't help his grin as he turns on the camera. He's already dressed to leave the ship and is fidgeting with the cuffs and collar of his suit. It's definitely not anything he's used to wearing.] Hey, Stephanie! You said you didn't want to stay here and we're at a port. It's not permanent but... It'd be some time off the Barge. It'll be fun.

[Kevin's been exploring as much of the fair as he can get to. He definitely needs spending money and he doesn't want to have to keep asking Jesse for more. The obvious solution is to hang out in the carnival area a bit and play with fire and paper. Everyone should just assume he's doing some kind of a trick, not magic, right? Besides, it's fun showing off what he can do. If he can make enough money, he'll buy one of those naked paintings over in that art building. If he makes more than that... Maybe he'll stay at a hotel instead of going back to the Barge overnight.]

[OOC: Feel free to run into Kevin anywhere in the fair. Just specify in the header.]

I guess not. [ A new idea, relatively speaking. ]

[This isn't what he'd had in mind to talk about. He pulls a piece of paper out of his pocket and crumples it into a ball, lighting it with a thought. He carefully pulled the fire into the vague shape of a dragon.]

[ It's not really Steph's idea of fun either. But firebending is the last thing she expected, and she yelps her surprise. ]

Holy-! How did you do that?

[He grins, a teasing glint in his eyes.]

That'd be telling.

If I'd known I was going on a date with a magician I wouldn't have bothered to dress up. [ She smiles wryly, teasing in turn. ]

I'm not a magician. [But he's blushing.] It's just fire. I can't do anything with the weather like Mom or Dad.

[ Her grin broadens. She does love making boys blush. And he's easy. ]

My mistake. I guess it's normal for people from Crazytopia to make fire dance.

New York, not Crazytopia.

From what I hear there's not much difference.

Just because some people can do things no one knows about?

It's like Gotham, a big city. A good place to hide if you really want to. Or a bad place, depending who you're hiding from.

You mean as long as they don't have a Djinn. Nowhere's a good place, then.

[ She eyes him with a frown, trying to gauge what's appropriate to ask and what's prying. ]

What is a Djinn, exactly? [ It sounds like 'gin'... ]

You know the story about the guy with the magic lamp? They're kind of like that.

But I thought magic genies were just a myth. [ Which, considering everything else... ] She says, while shopping the 1893 World's Fair with her space prison buddy.

[He can't help a laugh at that.] Well they're not quite the same. It's not lamps. It's glass bottles. And, if you break the bottle, they go free.

How'd your mom get one?

My mom didn't. Yvette usually stole them.

[ Tread a little harder why don't you, Steph? ]

So they're, like, common in your New York? I'm just trying to wrap my head around a place where weather magic is a thing that doesn't involve tights and a crime-fighting persona.

Not really. But they look mostly human so if they're free... And they're no real use to anyone without powers.

Tights? [He laughs.] No, more like suits.

[ Still sounds weird, bu she figures she's pushed her luck enough already. ]

Ooh, sketchy businessmen. My favorite.

Businessmen? [Where did that come from?]

People in suits. They all look like businessmen.

Oh. [He shrugs.] Maybe. I never really knew any.

Me neither. That's why I can joke about them.
