Akane's eyebrow quirked as Zac flagged the waitress. She was smart enough to realize this was part of his trick, of course, but it was an odd thing to do still. She shrugged this off for the moment and continued to converse. [color=red]"You must be pretty good! Or at least, we will see about that."[/color] She smirked peering towards the waitress as she walked away. [color=red]"And you can cook too?"[/color] Akane spoke with a slight bit of sarcasm. She was still impressed, of course, but she was never one to be serious about, well anything.[color=red]"You sure get around."[/color] Akane flicked her eyes towards the waitress as she neared the table, returning with the plate. With a bow of her head in thanks, her gaze fell back upon Zac. She gives him a nod as he continues to explain the build up for his trick. Her expression was rather blank. She had little idea of what to expect. [i]I mean... It's just a plate.[/i] Akane started up the tapping of her fingers once more as she watched Zac's setup. As Zac poured coffee atop the card onto the plate, Akane couldn't help but smile. [i]Now that was more interesting than simply pulling her card from the top.[/i] With his quick count Akane rose an eyebrow. [i]He was good. At least better than the usual 'pick a card' magicians trying to pick up girls.[/i] It took her a moment to even realize that it was the Queen of Spades he revealed. Akane then brought her hands together in a quiet clap that continued on for a bit. She was impressed. Without a verbal reply she simply nodded as she spoke. [color=red]"That certainly was a new spin on the usual card tricks."[/color] Akane paused once more, but this time to sip some of her tea. She was looking with impressed eyes at her new acquaintance. [color=red]"I see your practice has paid off. You had me impressed."[/color]
