*Laian talks to epicpokenerd*

Everything is ok. My father calls me since yesterday and wants me to go back to home, the owner of the casino wants to replace me for the Christmas show, I just had a phone call from him earlier. What else could I expect, huh?

*Laian calms down*

Sorry, epicpokenerd. Any news from the hospital?

laian : Well, fortunately PJ hasn't gone downhill, but because I can't pay for it yet, she has to stay longer. The longer she stays the more expensive it gets. I tell you, this wouldn't be so bad if she didn't have diabetes. Oh well, I just have to keep saving up.

I do understand it, I wish you all the best in Las Vegas. It will be a shame since I will likely miss it, perhaps you'll return here after and put on a show I'd love to see it.

I am quite grateful that our host has let us visit here, I simply wish I could do more for him you know?

laian : Could you provide me the name of the Casino? I may perhaps be able to pull some strings and make sure you got a solid time slot. 

Greymantle :

Thanks for your understanding, sir. 


Redrunelord :

The Planet Hollywood. It's where I'm supposed to be this Christmas. Since when do you want to help me? Are you not supposed to reject me as if I was the plague?


epicpokenerd! :

I'd like to help you. Like a magic show. Yes, a magic show, all the funds will go to your sister's surgery. It's your sister, isn't it? 

epicpokenerd! : Oh, oh can I help too? I'm good with, um... Attracting attention and stuff! Yeah, that way, more people will want to see the magic show.

laian : That is only in the illusions of your mind. I do not recall treating you in such a manner but regardless...the Planet Hollywood...*actually chuckles* I played a number of shows there and I'm friends with the owners there. Give me half an hour, and you SHOULD be ensured a sufficient timeslot. How long do you need?

laian : Hunter S. Thompson! That makes the entire trick all the more incredible. But I digress from the situation at hand.

Dr Lewis mentioned seven major categories for the presents. Why does this ring a bell to me? We can rule out Someone, Redrunelord and Leggy from the clues, but the ink is still questionable as to whom it belonged to. As for the address, any ideas what's that all about? *can see that there is an important discussion going on*, Oh, I'll make myself a cup of tea as your finishing *retreats a little shyly*

If you make flyers I could also hand some out, you know pitch in and draw some attention to the show for his sister.

*finishes his water and sets it down*

laian : Oh wow, thank you so much! You have no idea what this means to me.

Someone70 : That would be pretty helpful, to. Thanks!

Redrunelord :  
I must be there before the Christmas show. It's kind to help me, Red, but I will not stop saying that your music gives me some terrible headaches.

Darkpower508 :  
Magic is the dream. I  perform my magic tricks because the audience needs to dream in this world. Their smile is the essence and I'm here to prove that dreams and hopes come true one day, even if my father disagrees and wants me to quit this universe. 

*Laian heard what Greymantle said*

Hang on a second, you want a magic show, here and now?! 0_0

epicpokenerd! : it's the least I can do.

laian : Touching speech....and I wouldn't mind a magic show on the spot. Might be a good idea to lighten the mood before the next clue is delivered from Dr Lewis.

If you like, maybe someone can even record it and put a small demo on youtube for advertising's sake. Or something like that as an idea.

*Give the man a thumbs up*

I'm certain the mood here can't go anywhere but up, wouldn't you agree? You could also wait until tomorrow, if you need time to prepare.

Darkpower508 :  

But I'm not ready. Did you forget last time with your "rolo"? I don't want this accident to happen once again, I would be mad. And I'm still anxious about this Christmas show. 

Elara : Man, that'd be amazing! I think the magic show should be enough. It's only a couple hundred dollars, shouldn't be that hard. Thank you so much! Everyone, thank you.

laian : Then let this serve as a practice show, any mistakes done here can be ironed out and perfected before the big show. Any tricks you are unsure of you can practice. I know you can do it.

Arctic Wolf (SS82) : I don't know what it reminds me of, apart from it being my second favorite number (the first being "5"). Apart from that, nothing, like the voice of Escargoon, it's on the tip of your tongue, yet you can't remember were you heard it before. The reason I rule out Leggy for the simple reason that he is a zebra, in case you haven't noticed. Dr Lewis did in fact state that he was stuck in the vault for half an hour before being hauled out. Now, unless Dr Lewis let himself go with a very early Christmas dinner, I doubt he could have gotten in the vault. As for the address, we can perhaps discuss it later when things get more serious. I quite agree that this is a splendid time and should be enjoyed rather than spoiled.

*Into Laian's head* Guess you don't have any choice, Laian. People want the show. 


Darkpower508 :
*Laian smiles* Thanks Darkpower. But I need some practice first of all. And time too.
