Daniel waited, watching the fairgoers as he prepared his acts, tent slowly starting to fill at it neared 9:30, the first time for his show. Hey, he didn't set the times, he just performed at them. as it was, he stayed mostly out of sight, preferring to let street callers or the sign out front do the work for him. He would much rather talk to people afterwards and get their impression, and let his tricks speak for themselves. Soon enough it was time, and he took a last sip of water before stepping out, wearing a hat and cutting the picture of a stereotypical magician. "Hello one and all. Thank you for being here today," he said, beaming and casually scanning the crowd. Admittedly, this wasn't amazing, a modest tent with a couple bleachers so people could see, but it was better than nothing. No parlor tricks here, not today. Well, okay, maybe one or two, but you could hardly blame him. "Magic, is a wonderful thing," he began. "After all, how else would I be able to do this?" He snapped, and suddenly a flame burst to life on the tip of index finger, like the flame from a candle, though his hand was not clenched, instead pointing straight up as he paced about to casually display this to the audience. "I expect you all think so as well, which is why you're here today. Well, you won't be disappointed." He raised his finger, tipped his head back and swallowed the flame. There was a pause for a few seconds as he took a deep breath, before breathing out, a rush of flame filling the air like a professional fire breather, except without a torch. It dying away, he rubbed his eyes as smoke leaked from his mouth, earning a cough or two from the magician. "Apologies there. I must have had too much spicy food from the Cajun booth." Okay, so he wasn't a master. deal with it. This went on a bit, a bit of knife throwing, pulling rabbits out of hats, the standard magical fair, before he wheeled out two full size boxes, those ones you would see in shows that were separated into three segments. "Now then, I need two volunteers," he said happily, looking over the crowd for suitable candidates.
