Ooh, I think I got it to work!  The little light's blinking. That's like the universal sign for 'working', isn't it? [ the young girl, clad in a quite.. quirky outfit peers at the camera on the device quizzically. ] That means I'm being recorded, right? Well, a magician has to keep up appearances, so! Hello, Citizens of Exsilium! My name's Trucy Wright, Ace Magician! Maybe you've heard of me! Or maybe you've heard of daddy, that usually seems to be the case. [ she bounces on her heels a bit. ] I don't really know what's going on, but while I'm stuck here, let's have some fun, okay?

Let's start with an icebreaker! [ Trucy holds up a deck of redbacked playing cards. She then spreads all 52 out in her hand. ] Pick a card, any card!

[Come on, Trucy, it's not like you're in court with all the evidence stacking against you with a client that looks guilty from every angle, uncooperative witnesses, and a hotshot prosecutor...]

[In any case, Maya's never been at figuring out magic tricks, but she is captain exictable, and so]

Wow! That's the right card! That's totally the right card!

So it was good? I'm still working all the kinks out, but if you liked it, it must be pretty good as it is!

[ Trucy fails to realize how easy it is to impress Maya. ]

[One day she'll find out the cold hard truth...]

It was awesome! I'm sorry I ever doubted your Ace Magician skills!

[pantyraid]

[ how dare you doubt her ]

Well, I'm glad I made you realized just how skilled I am! I'll be here all week! [ for a while, actually. ]

If that's the case, have you got more for me.... [NOW LET HER USE HER ACE INVESTIGATION SKILLS TO CHECK THE NAME AGAIN.... (still weird that they'd have the same last name, but anyway)]

.. Ace Magician Trucy? [She tries to be dramatic about it.]

[video]

[pantyraid]

Ooh, I like the sound of that!

[ it really rolls off the tongue, somehow. ]

Of course, of course! Always new things for the fans!

[video]

[acemedium]

I'll introduce you to everyone! How's that?

Alright, let's see 'em!

[video]

[pantyraid]

Okay! You can be like.. my manager!

[ trucy do you know what you're saying ]

R—Right now? Okay.. [ oh she's got to think quickly.. ] Allakazoo! [ and, suddenly, a nearby mug flies out of her hat and at the wall. ] ... I don't work too well under pressure, I guess!

[.. ):]

[... Not bad, she guesses]

Well, I guess everyone has their off days! We'll just have to practice more.

[video]

[pantyraid]

Of course, non-stop practice! I've got to become the best if I have Maya Fey, Ace Manager on my team!

[ a respectful bow ] I won't let you down!

[video]

[acemedium]

That's right! And I'll have to train too, duck 'till dawn, to be a worth manager of Trucy Wright, Ace Magician! We gotta bring your star right to the top!
