Nothing up my Sleeves [Yaksha/Gage]

Gage walks, large fluffy white jacket lined with the fancy fur of a rabbit. In his hands he holds a bag of gummy bears, a handful of bears in his right hand with the bag in his left. One after another he tossed a bear into the air high enough to take about two steps before catching it in his mouth and downing it. It was like this, his routine starting up after this being his third visit to this street side magician, that he was developing a rather dangerous sweet tooth that was starting to upset his stomach but who could possibly care when you have a three pound bag of candy?

And this was it, this human from the feel of it, that always drew such a crowd during his performance. Gage was only passing by the last time that he was here, stopping to see the commotion as a man performed a series of 'impossible' magic tricks on the street but Gage knew better. At first it was the sheer amazement that hid the supernatural aura that emanated from the man but now that Gage has had some time to cool off, get a bite and a night in bed he can see this man for what he is. Spiritually awakened souls are rare in the human world, Gage only having met five in all of america and a good amount more in Japan but even with those numbers they are few and far in between.

"Thank you all for coming! And so we reach the third installment of our great performance. I'm somewhat surprised to find that the proper authorities haven't come yet. But when you're a man like me...well, let's just say you don't have much respect for authority."

Oh, well good thing he's humble. Would hate to have all that talent and be a showboat. Gage chuckled to himself as he listens, looking around as everyone was too nervous to step up and be in the lime light with the Street Magician as he called for a volunteer. This is it, my chance to say hey and get his attention. Stepping forward Gage waves to him and looks at the people, literally over a hundred pairs of eyes all watching him as he moves forward. "I'll do it," trying to not make a fool of himself as he looked over the cards as instructed.

Gage takes the cards thrust upon him gladly, looking around the crowd with a smile. Flipping through them quickly he finds the four of spades. Lets see how you act under pressure. This is going to be hilarious. Pulling it out he holds the deck in his left hand with the card sticking out the top. Dropping his bag of gummies he pulls a lighter out of his pocket lights it, igniting the corner of the card and puts away the lighter. Grinning to the crowd he gets a rather good reception to his less than polite way of disposing of the card.

As soon as the card caught a good flame and was about to burn away totally Gage tosses it into the air and blows on it, the ashes vanishing into the street winds. Grinning he turns back to the street performing magician. Top that. Still smiling he picks his bag of candy back up and starts to stuff his face. What was this man doing? He could be doing quite literally anything else in the world, being spiritually aware and mildly powerful opening doors that normal people can never even comprehend. He could do magic shows in a theater making thousands of dollars at a time and even work for the government if he wanted.

Maybe he was here to get someone or somethings attention, drawing special attention to the police or some other organization that he feels might be watching. "I'm done. Do I hold the cards or do I..." Walking forward he offers the cards back, the crowd laughing slightly at the antics of a strange man that appeared from nowhere with a lighter. Oh shit, I just burnt his card...I'm going to have to buy him a new deck now...
