Three of Diamonds - Video

[everylittlething]

[The scene: the interior of the living room of one of the housing units. A few lamps have been brought over to provide better lighting. A teenage girl with brown hair fiddles with her communicator, pursing her lips this way and that as she adjusts the video. Once she's satisfied, she smiles, steps back and replaces a bright blue top hat on her head.

Now she's all razzle-dazzle.]

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen! It's so wonderful to be here tonight! My name is Trucy Wright, professional magician, and it's my pleasure to officially introduce myself and my services!

Though you may think my promises are empty... [Her hat comes off again and she shows off the interior. Empty, of course.] I guarantee you won't be disappointed once you experience the joy and wonder of an authentic Trucy Wright performance!

[Reaching into her hat, she pulls out a long string of colorful flags, and a banner of letters which reads "Ta Dah!" There is also a burst of glittery confetti as she holds out the flags as to be readable.]

I'm a princess of parties! A baroness of birthdays! A queen of corporate events! A wizard of weddings! And tons of fun at funerals! Furthermore, my rates are very reasonable!

And if a magician isn't what you need, I also represent the east coast branch of the Wright Anything Agency. Legal consultation! Defense! Paperwork! You will say WOW.

[With a grin, Trucy takes a bow.]

So remember, if you need magic, and you need it spectacular, you need Trucy Wright!

[... then reaches into her hat and starts to pull out a broom.]

I'll be available for consultation as soon as I sweep up all the confetti.

Heh, well obviously didn't spoil you too much, you came out pretty fine to me. Seems like a good man. [Sage nod. Not that he has any idea of everything else of course. He at least did well by her.]

Well people here seem to like you so far. You got a lot of tricks prepared for when July 4th comes up?

[everylittlething]

Oh, I still got in trouble plenty. He just bought me everything I could possibly want.

[Thankfully Phoenix knows better than to tell her about all that business.]

Definitely! I actually have a few of Grandpa's that I have the rights to now. I might debut a couple of those if I can find a fireworks stand in time.

[ktfod]

Don't let all that go to your head. It's important to save and prepare for them things don't come so easy.

Be a good place for it with all the festivities happening. I can't wait to see for myself what you have planned.

[everylittlething]

I know, I know. That was when I was really little. Daddy and I had it rough for a long time, but we're okay now. I've been working part-time with my magic act since I was eight.

I might have to have somebody buy the fireworks for me, come to think of it.

[ktfod]

Daddy right- you have family here, don't you?

Fireworks?

[everylittlething]

Yes, my daddy is here. His name is Phoenix Wright.

[As though this is really obvious:]

You can't buy them when you're under 18, right?

[ktfod]

Yeah I know but- Is that really a good idea? [Uh, a kid having fireworks??]

[everylittlething]

But it's the Fourth of July! You need fireworks!

I'm almost 16, you know! That's close enough!

[ktfod]

Well yeah, but I'm sure a fireworks show is already planned. [16 isn't terrible but...]

[everylittlething]

Not being pulled out of my hat, it isn't.

[ktfod]

[UH-]

You sure that's a good idea?

[everylittlething]

Of course it is! I'll say some line about making sparks fly, or lighting up the night or something, and then bam!

I suppose it might be a good trick to use with my panties too, actually...

[ktfod]

I guess with a one liner, but still i-

[ktfod]

[Er-]

[everylittlething]

[Like there's nothing wrong with what she just said, she goes on merrily.]

I haven't debuted them much here in Florida, because they're my second most popular trick from the Wonder Bar. Next to Mr. Hat, of course.

Wanna see?

[ktfod]

[Um- he- isn't really sure how to answer that.]

-No, it's uh- fine.

[everylittlething]

Well, you liked Mr. Hat. So you're sure to like my panties!

[It is entirely unknown if she realizes how uncomfortable this concept makes people.]

Here we go! 3-2-1...

[everylittlething]

[With a little sleight-of-hand, she pulls an oversized, frilly pair of blue and pink panties out of nowhere.]

Ta-dah!

Not just any ordinary underwear! These are my magic panties!

[ktfod]

Shit- no it's-!!

Cool. [Uh, wait what.]

Y-your-?

[everylittlething]

~Magic panties~!

[She reaches inside and yanks out an entire spare tire.]

Ta-dah!

[ktfod]

-How--???

[everylittlething]

Magic.

[That cheerful, excited smile is hiding the world's biggest smug.]

Aren't they great? People at the Wonder Bar love them!

[ktfod]

It's- really not what I expected. [Buuuut, he's laughing, can't help it. Almost- feels bad for expecting anything else.]
