Daemon grinned, normally he didn't share his secrets with strangers, or random people, but she also attended Beacon and seemed genuinely interested in magic, which was rare, so he spread the deck out for her to see in his hands.

"Alright, well, the first trick is that I didn't have one queen of hearts in this deck, I had two, removing one of the top is simple for other tricks, but for this one, you need both. You have one in your hand, and you have this one." he said, putting the deck back together and pulling out the first card.

"Now, the second thing is the double lift, that's how I could bypass the queen the first time, and using a bit of slight of hand, drop the seven back down into the deck and put the queen in your hand... like so." he said, pulling off the first two cards and then flicking his wrist down, when he brought it back up, it only had the queen in his hands. "Doing the double lift twice is how I bypass the queen the first time and the seven the second time until it's time to show it.

"And finally, you have the way I got the seven inbetween the two queens in the first place, the Marlo tilt makes it look like I've split the deck in half and placing the card in the centre, but in reality...." he flashed his gloved hand around showing that he was putting the card underneath the top one.

"So yeah, that's about it. Any advanced magician or someone proficient with cards can do at least this much, but I'm prouder of my tricks that no one can replicate" he said with a small smile. The area was empty, but he didn't even realize it, rather, being able to talk to someone freely about tricks was giving him absolute delight, like his life before coming to Beacon.
