[Oh look, it's a little boy kneeling on the corner of Beaver Street. His hands are cupped together, and it looks like he's inspecting something veeeeeeery interesting on the ground. The baseball cap on his head is positioned backwards, and his clothes look a little dirty and worn, but that's normal for a small, energetic boy of merely seven, isn't

[It's a mini-Aoko! Standing on the stoop, she's watching him. She's already had her freakout and has finally decided this is all just a very detailed dream.]

[As Kaito continues to stare, she carefully steps off the stoop and comes over to him, squatting down to try to figure out what he's looking at, head slightly tilted.]

[There are a few cards and roses piled up on the ground in front of him, and he glances up at Aoko with a child-like grin]

'M trying to make cards disappear. [he turns his attention back to the pile]

... can make roses disappear, but not cards.

[supersizedpower]

[Oh hey it's another little boy at the same house, he's just a little younger.]

Whatcha doin'?

[kaitopants]

[he looks up, all wide-eyed and happy]

Makin' cards disappear!

[supersizedpower]

How do you do it?

[kaitopants]

[his face scrunches up in concentration]

It's a magician's secret. That's what Daddy says.

[Teenage Harley is walking down the street when she see's the kid and she walks over curiously]

Hey whatcha doin' there?

[kaitopants]

[he pokes at his pile of cards]

Playin'.

[crazyclownwoman]

Playin' what?

[kaitopants]

Makin' cards disappear.

[luminols]

[Walking around and is totally lost. S'up Kaito.]

Wow, you know magic tricks?

[kaitopants]

[glances up and nods]

Uh-huh! I'm gonna learn a bunch just like my dad!

[luminols]

Can you show me one, please? Because, scientifically speaking, magic doesn't exist! But magic tricks aren't the same thing are they? Even though they look really realistic... I can never do them properly.

[kaitopants]

[a nod] Okay!

[and he holds out his hand, and voila! Instant rose] This is for you, because Daddy said pretty girls should get flowers!

[OHSHIT INCOMMING SMALL HYPERACTIVE CHILD IS HEADING STRAIGHT FOR YOU AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

[kaitopants]

[CRAAAAAASH.

All of his cards and roses go eeeeeverywhere]

[Sniffle sniffle]

[blink blink. He feels pain, but he doesn't cry out]
