The thief quickly lifted his head when he heard the voice.
Rather unnerving song to be singing at this time of night…
He looked around, not seeing where the song was coming from right away.
“Umm… Is someone there?”
He held back a grimace. While he knew some of the most basic tricks, his greatest point would always be hypnosis.
“If you really want, but you’ll be disappointed. I’m quite an amateur, you see. My best trick only works with children, unfortunately.”
To prove his point, he quickly moved the hand that wasn’t in his pocket to make his pendulum appear.

He eyed the man warily as the object was brought out. The hand remaining in the pocket had been noted, but it seemed like the other was willing to attempt a trick, thankfully. Though, a pendulum was an odd choice for a prop…
“Well, I’ve been told I’m rather childish,” he said, leaning forward with a grin, “And it wouldn’t hurt to try, right?”
