Geralt chuckled as she took the card, matching her smile with his own. [color=crimson]"Oh, don't you worry, Mein Flamme, you couldn't loose it if you tried."[/color] It was honestly about time that The Magician bestow one of his cards on the girl. Now all he had left were Illyana and Aurel...

At Akane's next question, he smiled a little more mischievously and shook a finger at her,[color=crimson] "Now, now, you know that a Magician never reveals his secrets..."[/color] he let his voice trail off mysteriously, then glanced around as if there might be someone listening. Satisfied that they were entirely alone, he lowered his voice slightly and added, [color=crimson]"I can tell you that the way we choose our gifts is similar. It wouldn't be as fun if they weren't personal, nein?"[/color] He said, then winked to show that this statement was playful. 

He did choose each and every card carefully. Lucien had been the easiest to place, and Ivory, despite how quickly she had received her card, had been most difficult for him. The others were just a matter of laziness, really.
